Tom Croose and Slow Hands make up Worst Friends, both of them have contributed amazing exclusive work for the ISO50 with playlists, mixes, remixes, edits, and covers of artists like Van Morrison, Beirut, Fleetwood Mac and M83. Both of them are great guys, they were my DJ partners when I moved to Brooklyn and now release on Future Classics and Wolf+Lamb and also “Tom” is getting married this summer, congrats guys on this 12″ release.
A new Sun Kil Moon album is out and i’m loving it all the way thru, check out the Mark Kozelek playlist I put together awhile back.
This weekend I watched a Thavius Beck ableton sort of lecture on how he uses his Beat Repeat, it was pretty enjoyavble so I went back to find a track for the blog and found this gem, is this an Outkast song? I don’t know enough about Outkast sadly.
The Books have a new album coming out, i’m huge fan, the guys in that group definitely have influenced many musicians I know, this new one sounds like if you made Lemon Jelly and DJ Shadow work together 8 years ago, which to me is a great thing.
I actually preordered The Books’ album and got it last Friday. I’ve listened to it twelve or so times already. It’s so good.
Might I add onto my previous comment that it’s definitely one of those albums that only gets better the more you listen to it.
I am really groovin’ to Worst Friends.
I’m diggin this Sun Kil Moon song. I’m not really familiar with them, but it’s compelling. This type of music isn’t typically in my sweet-spot, but somehow it works for me right now. Reminds me of something that would be in a Wes Anderson movie, perhaps. I just caught Good Will Hunting on a movie channel last night and this is a bit reminiscent of Elliot Smith’s work that was in that flick…forgot how much I appreciated it and am now on a mission to find it, and perhaps more music in the same vein. It’s funny how timing/synchronicity works in the world…
That’s definitely an Atmosphere rap song in the Thavius Beck song, just so ya know.
Where can you buy Worst Friend’s music? I only have found a single release on Amie Street and cannot find any other material anywhere else!
