A Certain Village?

To continue on the recent theme of music overload: madness, I've gotten so much new music lately. But it's a glorious thing.

Checking out this band Quiet Village, a duo from the UK. This album is all over the place, one track it's deep funk, next one is schmaltzy strings and seagulls and humming vocals, then they sound like a Prefuse 73 record. I dig it.

If you like that kind of Prefuse 73 or Tortoise all instrumental/electronic vibe check out Errors.

If you're into Gorillaz and Damon Albarn check out Monkey, his album of all Chinese-style remixes and songs (DC_EJ).

Props to Gabino for hooking me up with some good stuff. Juana Molina is on the Savath & Savalas tip, and Esbjorn Svensson was a really cool swedish pianist who died tragically in a scuba-diving accident, if you like Brad Mehldau doing Radiohead or the acoustic Madeski, Martin & Wood you'll be into this.

Props back at you Rootless, I'm up to my neck in delicious new music.

Does anyone have the New Juana Molina?
