Lone

Well i should've posted about Flying Lotus before i posted about Lone, since FlyLo is the American precursor to this British fellow. My slightly uninformed opinion is that Lone is like a cross between Flying Lotus and Phaseone, who you might remember from a previous blog. Oh, there's a slight Boards of Canada vibe with his mini in-between tracks too. I haven't blogged about Boards of Canada yet, since i've mainly been using this blog for new discoveries. Rest assured they're still my favorite Scottish electronic duo. There's too many of these talented hip-hopstrumentalists sprouting up all over the place. I love it! It's an exciting time for music i think...

Soulwax

Jesus, i don't know how i fell asleep on these guys. They're like the Belgian LCD Soundsystem, but they predate LCD, so i'm guessing he's more influenced by them than vice-versa.



Just downloaded their 06 and 04 albums and they're great.

You might have heard of their DJ alias, 2 Many DJ's, but Soulwax is their crazy electronic rock band (I hate the word electro with all my heart), and they're amazing. They've done remixes for everyone from Ladytron to DJ Shadow, to Daft Punk..

Check out their documentary on http://www.pitchfork.tv for one week only.

Passion Pit

New band from Cambridge, MA. Mainly the work of one guy.

Beautiful strong falsettos...would be lazy to compare to Prince i think. I'm lazy.

Wait, is it falsetto?? Its hard to tell when it gets that high!

Awesome songs nontheless.

Clipse

My fave rap duo just released their newest mixtape.

To quote Prince Paul on the phone to the Biz, "Yo...yo it's ill."



Lil Wayne is nothing compared to these guys.
