Goldfrapp – Little Bird

goldfrapp_7th_tree.jpg

The fourth studio album, “Seventh Tree” by British electronic duo Goldfrapp is scheduled for release by Mute Records on February 26, 2008. Goldfrapp have described the album as a “sensual counterpoint to the glitterball glamour of Supernature”, their last studio album of new material in 2005. The album’s first single, “A&E”, is scheduled to be released on February 12, 2008.

The cut we have for you today is called “Little Bird”. I dig the psychedelic sounds, beatles-esque bass line, and etheral vocals on this track. The album as a whole is major departure from “Supernature”.

Give this track at least a listen up to the 2:40 mark to really get the effect of this track.

Chk chk chk side project from John XI Pugh and Gorman with a friend named Maddy.   The sound is nice departure from the guitar-driven tunes typical of !!!.   With Free Blood, their is a nice mix of electronic, punk  and pop to produce a great dance punk track.

Freezepop – Harebrained Scheme

Art school vocals and pop sensibilities dominate this track. Vocals at times remind me of someone doing the “robot” while talking, but strangely enough it’s very entertaining. And to think all from a very modest setup of a Yamaha QY70 battery powered sequencer and a Mama vocoder, talk about DIY.

Freezepop formed in 1999 in Boston, MA. and their latest album, “Future Future Future Perfect” was just release this September on Recodes — with an upgrade to their modest music studio no less.
