Here’s what was on self-titled‘s office stereo today:
The Artist/Album: James Blackshaw, All Is Falling (Young God, 2010)
The Songs In a Couple Sentences: A 12-string maestro goes electric. Like Dylan for drone addicts, or symphonic suites for the slightly damaged.
–
The Artist/Album: ceo, White Magic (Modular, 2010)
The Songs In a Couple Sentences: Exactly what you’ll want to hear as summer comes to a close with one last hurrah and hints of regret. Easily the most elegantly-orchestrated electro-pop record of the year, too.
–
The Artist/Album: Tamaryn, The Waves (Mexican Summer, 2010)
The Songs In a Couple Sentences: An album you should judge by its cover. Mazzy Star melodies and Laurel Canyon chords, beamed from a platform at the bottom of the ocean.
