New Glass Candy and Chromatics

It's good to see talented people making it work on their own terms. This is why I will always love IDIB. fucking rageit.



Fuck! I've been waiting for them to put that one out! The past two or three times I've seen chromatics they have been even better than they were when I first came to town. They sound so nice and full with ruth playing guitar and it just makes everything sound bigger and... I dunno... it's just fucking sweet... But yeah, they played that song the past few times and I've been looking forward to hearing it again.

Griff's Minimal Synth Mix

I love the sound of synthesizers. My friend Griff makes amazing music and also loves synthesizers, and a good deal of the time when we're hanging out we end up watching ridiculously nerdy synth videos on youtube and listening to some of the amazing music people have created on synthesizers. This mix is comprised of some new and interesting synth music as well as some old and rare synth music. All of it is quite nice. You should check it out as well as his album A Thousand Swords & The Flooded Cave. I suspect you will find them both as pleasurable as I have.

Tesla Boy

It's been a while since I've posted anything up here and I guess mostly because I couldn't think of anything "important" enough to post... But you know what? Importance is all relative and the internet is full of garbage anyway, so if I have anything to show the world that isn't garbage I might as well get on with it...

Anyways, with that in mind I'd like to share with you a group from Russia called Tesla Boy. I first heard their song "spirit of the night" on the Valerie blog a few years back...  and it kindof blew my mind...


tesla boy - spirit of the night



Spirit of the night is one of those songs that just keeps getting better as it goes on... Every different part adds something that's... to me at least, undeniably great... It feels like some lost treasure from the airwaves that I might have heard before school in the second grade or something... Kindof reminds me of the police... which was something I heard a lot of when I was young.

"Synchronizing" from their "Modern Thrills" record also reminds me of the police pretty heavily and is totally fucking awesome...

I've listened to this record pretty consistently over the past year and overall it might be my favorite thing that came out in 2010... It's pretty much the purest '80s music I've ever heard that's not actually from the '80s... It doesn't seem ironic or jokey to me... it's just... really good... It makes me wonder if maybe the radios where they're from are still receiving signal from 1986 or something...

Tesla Boy - Liberating Soul


So yeah... It's certainly not punk, it's not hardcore in any sense of the word, it's not severe at all and not of any particular relevance to any of the socio/political situations our horribly fucked up world is facing at the moment... but what it IS is brilliantly executed and timeless synthpop that almost never fails in making me smile... And that's got to be worth something...

Tesla Boy live in the studio.
