Sobrenadar - Finales
My buddies at Absent Fever always seem to be busy with something. This time it is with their first female artist, Paula Garcia, an Argentinian smooth pop extraordinaire. And along with Stadiums and Shrines, we’re giving you a first look at her new EP, Physeos. Come Monday, it will be available to all on the Absent Fever bandcamp.
There’s something about this video, and this song, with it, that give me the distinct feeling of some kind of staged reality. The border that lie between authenticity and fraudulence. The hollow applause, the posed girls taking half sips of drinks. But, then there’s a turn. Marriage, a new life, a family. And in finale, death. Which relinquishes all inauthenticity in one last breath.
Free Music Collection: November 2011
This months free music collection is here. This is what Nathaniel has to say about it:
“One of the most versatile of gemstones, tourmaline, exists in nearly every color, from colorless to black. Some spend lifetimes collecting, searching for a cesation to their appetite. For the happiest no such end is in sight. We revel in the hunt. Music is our gemstone, off-the-beaten-path, our tourmaline.”
Click the image to go start the hunt for yourself. Collection collected by usual collectors: myself, Think or Smile, Friends With Both Arms, and Stadiums and Shrines.
___________________________________________
Here are my selections:
- Born Gold – Bodysongs: Freak glitch beauty from the newly transformed Canadian pop warlocks.
- Dreams – Feelings 4 U EP: Everything else changes, but funk is eternal. $
- Dusk Warrior – Overdrive Sunrise: Library music, you’ve heard it before, you just didn’t know it.
- Flashing Red Lights – Faster Horses EP: Part rock and roll, part innovative electronic production, all in all: really good. $
- Kodak to Graph – Visio’l EP: From start to finish, the EP soundtracks life in the sleepy town of Pensecola, FL where Michael Maleki lives. And having lived in Florida for some time myself, I can tell you, he’s doing the place a favor. The production is impressive, and the sounds are thoughtful and smooth.
- Thrupence – Unfinished Business Beat Tape: A twenty minute dream, guided by soft beats and forgotten smooth jams.
Birkwin Jersey = Sixes and Nines
Nathaniel brings us another visual gift. This time it’s for young artist, Birkwin Jersey. A lot has happened since I mentioned him last. He’ll be putting out an EP titled Time Doesn’t Exist, Clocks Do through the friendly and fresh Absent Fever just next Monday the 11th.
Head over to Stadiums and Shrines to see the official introduction to this collection of juxtaposing images taken from a great documentary: Baraka.
