Panda Bear - Person Pitch

The best album of 2007 that I didn't hear till 2008. Panda Bear is a member of Animal Collective and he made one of the most critically acclaimed albums of the decade back in ought seven and I'm bringing it you live: good for yo earhole.

He relies heavily on samples and MIDI to create very complex pop music. This album is only 7 tracks, but packs enough awesomeness for 70 tracks. I can't describe this album other than Beach Boys on more LSD.

Download this.


Now.


That is a direct order.

New Merriweather Post Pavillion Link

I finally redeemed my MP3 code from Domino Records and got my 320 kpbs version of the new Animal Collective album. Oh my god. What an amazing album. Sounds and samples I never heard before are coming out at me. This album is classic. CLASSIC.

Also, I have no idea where the Final Part of the Top 10 list went. Some pretty well-written reviews there of TV on the Radio and The Sound of Animals Fighting. Maybe the interwebz police were sweeping for TVOTR or TSOAF links across the web and deleted the post. Hmm. Sorry guys.

Electric President - Discography



Electric President are Ben Cooper and Alex Kane, a duo from Jacksonville who rose from the remains of other indie bands. They are known for subdued, acoustic songs with electronic bells and whistles placed intricately between the quiet vocals and the intimately plucked guitars. This music is really great for a late night drive home through the rain. They have two albums and two 7"s. The 7inches are okay, but the best release is their first album, ironically titled, S/T. They are on the Morr Music label, and are quite the mysterious band. I will definitely be looking out for more from these dudes. Below are links for the first album S/T and Sleep Well. For fans of The Postal Service and other music along those lines...






Electric President perform "Monsters" in the tool shed they record all their music in:
