It’s college radio season, so expect lots of mischief. Indeed, this week’s releases hint towards a spectacular Halloween season of music to come.
A bit longer, more bizarre, and international than most weeks, in short, we eatin’ good.
Highlights, Curiosities, and Observations:
- Master Peace, grandson, and Jesca Hoop battle the robots
- A new, more traditional Tame Impala single in the vein of Lonerism
acts as a mea culpa for the first singles’s controversial minimalist house - Gwenifer Raymond drops a killer acoustic instrumental dedicated to occult rocket fuel chemist Jack Parsons
- Frost Children deliver a gnarly dubstep remix
- Latto and Ice Spice collab on a trippy beat with solid “Gyatt”
- Ash and Graham Coxon (guitarist for Blur) deliver a fun rock track channeling peak Britpop
- Portgual the Man encase their newest pop hit in a thick layer of metal riffs
- Metronomy tries the nerves with Fairlight-style sampling and synths straight out of peak Booji Boy DEVO
- Princess Nokia pays homage to David Lynch with a rap banger
- Dumbo Gets Mad have some fun with soaring harmony
- Armand Hammer teams up with Shapednoise for a rich and noisy hip-hopper in the Injury Reserve vein.
- Deaf Circles and Machine Girls’ new singles “Crap Circles” and “Rabbit Season” respectively go hard
- The notably consistent and interesting Weval and Clark check in
- Ladytron returns with a new single
- Max Richter’s a capella finale is almost too-haunting
ENJOY!
