“The Front Steps”, by Mrs. Magician singer / songwriter Jacob Turnbloom, displays a startling versatility on the part of the San Diego, CA native. The song, part of Jacob Turnbloom’s Death Tapes, a limited release of various bedroom recordings, is properly rooted in the reverb-core / slacker tradition. Gripping from the first chord and with a wonderful, building arrangement, the abstruse delivery is a complete 180° from the Mrs. Magician LP released earlier this spring. While that album is perfect summer hipster BBQ music, “The Front Steps” is private, intimate, to be cherished.

Kodak to Graph works the middle and elevates it with a slow burner and serious compliment to “Work the Middle” by Andrea. It’s soulful and smooth around all-the-right-edges and has the gradual harmonic clarity and the fancy of an old style cartoon. Kodak to Graph takes you on a subtle atmospheric trip as resolute and refreshing as a full system reset. Turn it up!

Silversun Pickups return with their long-awited album number three It’s a fairly relaxed affair with a few tracks that will rock you, including “Dots and Dashes”. Nikki Monninger’s base line hooked me right out of the box, and I wouldn’t be surprised to see this track become a single after “Bloody Mary” has had its hit run.

Alain Lalonde is back with another remix! This time Usher’s Diplo-produced track ‘Climax’ (a b3sci favorite). There’s really two things I have to say about this remix. First, Alain adds some bounce to the track, especially during some of Usher’s vocals. Secondly, he cranks up the heat. If you aren’t careful, you’ll get smacked in the face at about the 4:45 mark. I like what I have seen so far from Alain Lalonde, he has this unique funky style, but doesn’t forget that you have to get the beats smashing sometimes to get a crowd jacked up.

“Mona Lisa Overdrive” is Tango in the Attic’s second single from their forthcoming album, Sellotape, and comes with an accompanying video featuring footage from their time at SXSW this year. What we’ve heard so far from the new album points towards an altogether nosier, garage sound than the debut Blank Place Locomotive Society whilst hanging on firmly to their energetic pop qualities. Sellotape will be out on May 28th.
