vinyl confessions & her friends

Laurel Halo - Carcass (Sun Hammer Remix)

“The resulting remix of ‘Carcass’ opens with waves of static, a blank canvas slowly being torn apart to reveal a lens-flared horizon that appears endless – until that bassline hits.”

Yep, that about says it all. Glorious.

Grab it over at FACT.

Erika Spring - Happy At Your Gate (Courtship Remix)

Taking the almost-club-groove vibe of the original & turning it into something sparse, something more on the side of drug-induced ambiance… 

Diggin’ it.

Azealia Banks - Luxury

Good morning, cool cats.

First off, name of band? Brilliant.

Second, this song is kick-ass. Perfect 90’s sound of, yes, as yvynyl points out, Sleater-Kinney &, to my ears, a wee bit of Lush as well.

Yum!

Bleeding Rainbow - Pink Ruff

I first heard this album, pre-mastered, while cruising around with the windows down on a muggy summer evening with my friend Dryw (who manages the band) on the way to see Radiohead. Fitting. It’s a long way from their previous efforts - couple Rob + Sarah added new band members, Al + Greg, and went from ultra-lo-fi & noisy slap-snare garage songs to beautifully heavy 90’s throwback shoegaze sound that sounds as My Bloody Valentine as it does Sleater-Kinney.

Don’t miss their excellent forthcoming Yeah Right LP from Kanine Records out on October 9th.
