Garden City Movement – Move On

Garden City Movement - Move On

We’re loving the lighter-than-air easy impact sound of “Move On” from BLDG5 Records artists Garden City Movement. The sweeping cinematic nature of “Move On”, we imagine, would make a trip your next music-aided grocery store or post office trip quite a bit more dramatic.

REVIEW: Casa Indio @ Folsom Street Foundry, San Francisco 10/30/13

casaindio

Team B3 was in the building for the San Francisco version of Indio Beer and Vice Magazine’s Casa Indio tour. Conceived to help increase visbility of Mexican and Mexican-American musicians and artists in the U.S., the San Francisco Casa Indio stop is one of four to take place in 2013; the others being Los Angeles, Austin & Chicago.

Casa Indio’s two week line-up (the festival runs through Nov. 9) of nearly 20 artists included Wednesday night’s performances from Boiler Room L.A. vet Shawn Reynaldo and Icee Hot records artists Ghosts on Tape. The vibey modern house of both Reynaldo’s and Ghosts sets did nicely to complement the venue’s relaxed, artistically well-appointed atmosphere (and free beer).

Casa Indio continues Thursday Nov. 7 at the Folsom Street Foundry with sets from DJ Vin Soul, Bobby Browser, Matrixxman, and Jason Kendig. For further information about Casa Indio including future performances, gallery showings, and how to RSVP; visit casaindio.vice.com.

MØ – XXX 88 (Oceaán Remix)

mo

Manchester-based producer Oceaán restyles current indie it girl MØ’s “XXX 88” nearly unrecognizable (but in a very good way). The after hours house/R&B blend on Oceaán’s mix is the sort sound we imagine our MØ “chilling” too after busy evening of raging. The “Bikini Daze” EP is out now.

Premiere: Easy Lover – All We Want (HTIMSETAN Remix)

easy love the night we breath by Lewis Heyward

A few years ago Brooklyn duo Easy Lover were just a couple of kids (vocalist Kali Holloway ex-The Affair and Day for Night and multi-instrumentalist Jeremy Wimmer) tryna start a new band on Craigslist. The two met through an ad Holloway placed on the social classifieds/sociological Fourier series. Fast forward to October 2013 and the BK band are dropping new EPs, showering in profile web coverage, drinking champagne and getting B3SCI premieres. Here, Easy Lover team up w/ remixer HTIMSETAN for the B3 premiere of this lighter-than-air, sunrise on the space shuttle refashion (word to all our NASA stans in the audience) of “All We Want”.
