This song by Swedish duo Plej managed to find its way onto my comp’s music folder unseen. I haven’t a damn clue how it got there! Where did you come from, oh my sweet “Blue?” Your sweet jazzy downtempo vibes and lush electronic overtones have added a much needed soundtrack to my mundane act of dish washing and clothes folding. I….I love you.

Another gem from Austin TX! The once solo efforts of Martin Crane has bloomed into a 3-piece live act, with Crane’s lyrically creative, acoustical & piano-driven songs flourishing in Brazos‘ first LP Phosphorescent Blues. The LP’s ruby is definitely “The Observer,” Crane’s musical vision of mid-century poet Adrienne Rich’s The Observer. This album evokes a strong feeling of bittersweet nostalgia for me, personally.

I just heard Julian Lynch for the first time bright and early this morning on my way in to work and I decided it was my duty as an endowed member of Newdust & Co. to share it with you guys. It was “Terra” that graced my cochleas this morning, with its free-jazz & Animal Collective tribal vibes; I was hooked instantly. I came across this video for “A Day At The Racetrack,” another great Lynch track, I thought you guys might enjoy it! Terra is his latest full-length, pick it up on sweet, sweet vinyl here!

I’m a sucker for electronic artists who sample vintage jazz vocalists into their music. LAKE R▲DIO’s “Joining You” is by far my new favorite. He samples Billie Holiday’s unbelievable voice from her somber, appropriately named tune “Gloomy Sunday,” which I am absolutely in love with. LAKE R▲DIO samples the fantastic line, “would they be angry if I thought of joining you?” and turns it into a fantastic little downtempo deephouse tune. The song is off his July 2010 EP The Weather. Here’s Holiday’s original, followed by LAKE R▲DIO’s “Joining You.”

| Patrick Lee is a musician and producer from Denver, Colorado. And, trust me, a gifted one. We learn from the succinct and a tad crazy bio on his website that he has always shown an overwhelming love for music, and he released his first record in 2000. He has been one busy guy since : The Last Thing is his 25th album, and a mixtape also came out earlier this year. On The Last Thing Patrick Lee offers some deliciously vintage tunes, mostly influenced by jazz, rock and blues. With a twist of modernity here and there, sometimes touches of hip-hop, sometimes hints of electronic music. “I Stand Before You” is a one-of-a-kind combo of a jazzy background, hip-hop beats and a surprising chipmunk-like voice sample. |
On the paper, this shouldn’t probably work. But you should definitely give it a listen or two because Patrick Lee knows how to work his magic and, hey, this happy tune is just what you need on a Sunday afternoon.
