Recently I saw André Obin open for School Of Seven Bells, he is also scheduled to open for Tycho in NYC this Wednesday. He has a unique live show, he doesn’t do synth pop like most synth pop acts, he gives off this darker club vibe and its not a trendy direction either, its just a passionate early Kompakt feel with vocals, I don’t see very many American artists trying to do this. Grab this track up for free
Oh Blondes, when can I see you live, I hear great things and their EP Touched is a solid listen, can’t wait for an LP.
I didn’t know what to expect from Flying Lotus, I was hoping for loose psychedelic beat EP that would compliment his live show and extend the hype and I think he did just that. Clay is definitely my favorite track off the EP, the last 40 seconds show why he’s known for great composition and beat making.
I don’t know much about Karaocake to be honest but I picked it because it just reminded me of all the good mid 2000’s indie girl bands like Lali Puna, Broadcast, etc. that I don’t listen to much anymore.
Oh my god you really should still be listening to Broadcast. See their recent collaborations with the Focus Group (designer Julian House):

The track of Andre Obin remindes me of this artist I saw at Klub Radar called ‘Palmbomen’

The André Obin track is genius.
