STREAM ARCHIE BRONSON OUTFIT "COCONUT"

Archie Bronson Outfit | 03/09/10

A full-album stream of Archie Bronson Outfit's Coconut is now available on Soundcloud. Coconut is the London based three-piece’s first LP in almost four years and their third album for Domino.

Switching between full on deep-end rock and more reflective, beat-driven numbers, Coconut is a modern psychedelic testament delivering a visceral shot of pleasure. With recording sessions in London and Benton Harbour, Michigan, and production from DFA’s Tim Goldsworthy (LCD Soundsystem, The Rapture, Hercules & Love Affair) Coconut is an album bursting with warped inventiveness and sonic intent.

It's now available for pre-order on CD and LP. It will be available digitally and in stores on March 23rd.

Listen to the stream here.

And while you're at it, grab a download of the first single "Shark's Tooth".

 


 

STREAM THESE NEW PURITANS "HIDDEN"

These New Puritans | 03/03/10

A full-album stream of These New Puritans Hidden is now available on Soundcloud. Hidden is now available in CD, LP and digital from the Domino Mart and outstanding retailers everywhere.

Hidden marks the next step for These New Puritans since Beat Pyramid infiltrated the minds and hearts of people yearning to find a band who would challenge, perplex and mesmerise in equal measure.

Produced by TNPS's Jack Barnett and Graham Sutton (Bark Psychosis, Boymerang) and mixed by Dave Cooley (J Dilla, MF DOOM) the album draws equally on on the rhythmic lexicons of dancehall and 20th century post-minimalism, with instrumentation redolent of both the oceanic brass of Benjamin Britten's Peter Grimes and the plastic textures of modern U.S. pop. It is sometimes brutal, sometimes melancholy, and sounds like nothing else.

BENJY FERREE: DAYTROTTER SESSION

Check out Benjy Ferree's new Daytrotter Session. He performed 'Fear' and 'The Grips' from Come Back To The Five And Dime, Bobby Dee and a previously unreleased track called 'I'm So Young'.

As Daytrotter's Sean Moeller concludes, "Ferree [is] a master of thoughtful and disgustingly hooky pop songs...that often focus on characters, long-dead actors from the stage and screen, fascinating cads and drifters/next-door-neighbors and landlords, bar patrons who have gifted him some of their twisted yet authentic life experiences. Ferree is such a people person and a collector of their eccentricities that he's one as well, an artist as interesting as they come, crafting these songs rooted in old soul and doo-wop music and acting like salty characters from the turn of the century and earlier." We couldn't agree more.

DIRTY PROJECTORS PERFORM THE GETTY ADDRESS

02/01/10

Image: DPs_webArtist

On February 19th in New York and February 27th in Los Angeles, Dirty Projectors will present The Getty Address in full. They will be assisted by the 15-piece contemporary music ensemble Alarm Will Sound, conducted by Alan Pierson. In addition, they will play a set of material from their most recent album, Bitte Orca.

The New York show will take place at the Lincoln Center as part of the acclaimed American Songbook series. Since it was launched in 1998, American Songbook at Lincoln Center has been dedicated to celebrating the achievements of American popular song from the turn of the 20th century to the present.

In Los Angeles, Dirty Projectors will co-headline the Walt Disney concert Hall with the Los Angeles Philharmonic. The concert will be a collaborative endeavor: the first half of the program features the Los Angeles Philharmonic performing orchestral pieces chosen with David Longstreth. The Getty Address will be presented during the second half of the program.

The New York show is sold out; tickets to the Los Angeles show at Disney Hall are still available.

Broad popular acclaim notwithstanding, The Getty Address is kind of like the 36 Chambers of indie rock, or at least of Dirty Projectors' long, weird back catalog. Its unsettling mix of jokes, high concept and existential urgency plays out over heavy sequenced beats, choirs of women and orchestral arrangements that sound as if they've been sourced from a Jodorowsky film. The story it tells — roughly about a guy named Don Henley who falls in love with a girl named Sacagawea — is set in a bed of free association, arcane symbology, and hermetic self-reference. At the time of its release in 2005, it did not garner a great deal of attention, although it has acquired a small cult following in the intervening years.

You can read the letter David Longstreth wrote to Don Henley in 2005 about The Getty Address HERE.
