Chromatics - Running From the Sun

A “mixed collage” featuring unreleased material from Chromatics’ Kill For Love.

“Jet lagged & buzzing from Friday’s show in Paris, I couldn’t sleep…so I stayed up all night with Oko talking about color based dreams while blending these tracks together. Since the album came out, a lot of people on the road have been telling us they are curious to hear some of the unreleased music from the Kill For Love sessions…Recorded November 2009 through December 2011, these songs were all mixed between 4 & 6 a.m. After hours of tracking at the studio in Montreal, we’d clear the channels on the mixer, open a bottle of wine, & feel around in the dark…working our way through the atmospheric elements & peeling back layers of rhythm…throwing the songs into the abstract pile & playing them while driving home in the snow. In Amsterdam right now trying to upload it from the hotel. Fingers crossed…

This is a lullaby for you…
Sweet Dreams!

Meet Michael Maleki, aka Kodak to Graph. Apparently he works in Florida and makes something called glitch-hop.

Here’s a cute little mix that’ll surely perk you up. Assuming you like cute electro-pop remixes, of course.

And in case you missed it, here’s a link to Little Daylight’s spin on Edward Sharpe’s Man on Fire.

Chromatics - Into the Black (Neil Young Cover)

Chromatics - Into the Black (Voxels Remix)

I’m honestly not sure which version I prefer. I’ve fallen deeply in love with both of them.

You can find a lot of free downloads from Voxels over on their Soundcloud.

“Pandit” is Lance Smith from Lumberton, TX. His self-titled, sophomore effort can be coveted freely here.

“Since the notable success of ‘Eternity Spin’ in 2011, Lance Smith has kept very busy. Helping others to not only further their own path of success (Youth Lagoon, Coma Cinema, Foxes in Fiction), he has also kept steady at writing, producing & working on other projects amongst his own.

It’s safe to say that Smith’s writing and audio engineering abilities are ever changing and constantly growing. Incapable of categorization and ‘genre placement’. Folk, dream pop, rock… Smith continues to intertwine multiple influences ranging from Bob Dylan to Al Green, and from Neil Young to Fleetwood Mac. It’s a true feat that many artists only dream of conquering, but few ever achieve.”

While I can’t say Beat Connection’s new album is as amazing as their Surf Noir EP, it’s still a pretty good listen, and it’s just as catchy. You can stream the whole thing over at Soundcloud.

“Old School Heroes” series by Fab Ciraolo. There’s a really great interview with the artist over at Cool Hunting.

What is the story behind your “Old School Heroes” series? How did Skeletor end up in a plaid suit?

These cartoons were always in my mind, when I was little I would draw all of them by hand, I just loved them, so one day it just came to me. Drawing He-Man in a flower suit, I just did it and the result was interesting and fun to me. So I keep digging in all these characters making them more fashionable, always wondering how will they look in cool suits and jackets and tight pants— hipster looks. I wasn’t inventing something out of this world, just giving a little twist to things that were in my mind a long time ago.
