The Alcoves – Now

alcoves1

“Now” just sounds like an edgier pop recurrent you could have heard on alternative radio over the past 15 years yet it would still feel right at home after a new track by The Vaccines. With an LP in the works the Swedish 5 piece is something on the radar.

Pinebocks – Flee / My Unfunny Valentine

pinebocks

According to his bandcamp page, Pinebocks is the still nascent project of Cory Clifford, “an indie pop obsessed 21 year old idiot living in Texas.” His first release, Flee / My Unfunny Valentine, is quite simplistic but is held together by strong songwriting. There’s no trying to razzle dazzle with gimmickry and layers of synths, just a man with words, a guitar and some feelings to share. “Flee” is very Magnetic Fields with a pinch of Van Dyke Parks. “My Unfunny Valentine” has a traditional, almost Leadbelly bent. These songs are unfinished, but they don’t need a band propping them up. They have enough panache on their own. Peep this and propose a toast to all the precocious youths writing songs throughout the Heartland. Contributed by Chris Gedos

Walrus Ghost – Bent

walrus-ghost

New Brooklyn artist Walrus Ghost delivers the stunning ambient piece “Bent”. While your mind is held captive by symphonic layers of subtle acoustic guitar, sax, clarinet, trombone, and trumpet, all of your sonar senses will indulge. A track worthy of closing your eyes.

E I R I – James

We don’t know who “James” is, but whoever he is… E I R I has taken very kindly. The dark electro artist out of NYC drops some nice horn sampling over a lush trip-hop bed. Press play. #B3SCIAFTERDARK
