Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti
not any more
Pink's new album Before Today leaked a few days ago and while it's definitely a lot less lo-fi than previous LPs like 2005's Worn Copy his new sound really allows the lush melodies to shine through. This is one of the more whimsical numbers, and also one of several that will bring to mind Bowie comparisons:
Ilyak
he takes her to the point / where she can't take it any more
Featuring fantastic production for such a relatively underground artist is this EP from Melbourne hip-hop up-and-comer Ilyak. I've seen him put on a great show supporting Project Puzzles at the Revellers about a month ago but in his own right he shines in these recordings. Forgive the box.net download links - download the entire ep from here.
The National
venom radio and / venom television
The National's new album High Violet has been released in one form or another in the last few days but this single was one of two that had official release dates beforehand. It's great for plugging in for a downhill ride home from uni if you're mad enough to drink the dangerous cocktail of bikes and headphones (the "Organ Donor", if I really want to stretch this out).
