New: Logan Lynn – Burning Your Glory
Just received a copy of Logan Lynn’s new full length offering called, “From Post to Pillar” (due out later this year). Logan Lynn delivers on the promise of his hit, “Feed Me To The Wolves” by creating a rich, atmospheric and electronic collection of sounds and voice. Several stand out tracks on the album include:
If He Hollers – A cross breed of Depeche Mode starkness with Duran Duran production sensibilites. Easly one of the best tracks on the album!
Bottom Your Way To The Top – Industrial sounds and dark brooding make up the body of this track. In my mind, the video that is conjured upon listening to this track is: A slow free fall down an elevator shaft with glimpses of your troubled past on each floor.
Burning Your Glory – Melancholy heartache never sounded so pretty, simply breathtaking.

Bibio – Great Are The Piths
Remember Drivers Education in High School, and being subjected to video tapes that were produced in the 1970′s and the audio tracking on said videos always sounded wonky — not to mention just straight weird? We’ll upon first listen to Bibio’s latest release, “Vignetting The Compost”, that was the first image that popped into my mind and made me smile. That only is worth a post in my opinion.
Bibio fuses folk sentiments with soundscapes and dashes of electronic elements. This album is ripe for spring, the songs on this album just brim of sunshine and rolling grassy hillsides.

NEW Royksopp – It’s What I Want
I’m so glad 2009 is here, 2008 just sucked like no other — and there’s nothing better than having one of your favorite group release a new album and the satisfaction that the wait was worth it. Royksopp has always produced solid electronic tracks, and are one of just a handful of electronic artists that can produce engaging instrumentals. Royksopp’s latest offering, “Junior” is pure bliss, and one of my favorite tracks off the album is actually an instrumental, “Royksopp Forever” — way to go guys [tilts hat]! And here for your listening pleasure is the closer on “Junior”
