Feather Beds makes a lush landscape populated with abstract sounds and samples slid into a pop wrapper. This track hits the spot for me tonight.
NEW: Maps – Valium in The Sunshine
One of my favorite albums of 2007 was from unknown artist at the time by the name of Maps, the album was “We Can Create”. Maps, an alias for a James Chapman, recorded the entire album in his bedroom with nothing more than a 16 track. Well, he’s back with a new release, “Valium in The Sunshine” from his latest effort titled, “Chemeleon” (Due out sometime in August). You get a glimpse of what’s in store for his new opus toward the end of this track. It’s a little more darker, a little more moodier, and alot more driven.

Twiggy Frostbite – Heroes
A little sullen toytronica to tickle the ear lobs from Twiggy Frostbite, which is the new project from Elin of The Deer Tracks. Great vocals again from Elin on this track. Anyone who enjoys the likes of Múm, Portishead, Sigur Rós, Mazzy Star, or The Knife will find something to fall in love with on this track.
Video for Heroes:
Twiggy Frostbite – Heroes
Press:
Twiggy Frostbite took shape in the spring of 2006, inspired by the London Underground, and the music evolved to something unique. The untamed tones and frosty noise of the northern Swedish coast meet the acoustics of the tube and create a dreamlike atmosphere.
Twiggy Frostbite has its roots in Gävle and shares members with The Deer Tracks and Grizzly Twister. The debut album “Through Fire” will arrive in the winter of 2009 and is a melodical journey from doldrums to hurricane.
