Pygmy Lush - Old Friends (2011)




Members of pg.99 and City of Caterpillar went on to form a strange hybrid of folk and old school skramz. This album and Mount Hope (2008) did away with all the skramz bits (well, mostly) and went to straight hushed folk tunes. Fuck new Fleet Foxes, this is where the hype should be.

listen.

Mike Sheridan - I Syv Sind (2008)



Okay, so let me start off by saying, fucking CHRIST this album is incredible. Trentemøller has probably been my favorite Danish electronic producer for a while, but Mike Sheridan has undoubtedly just stolen that title. At LEAST that title. I mean, I'm listening to this album right now and losing my fucking shit. My god.

So Mike Sheridan's gotta be the youngest electronic producer right now. He was born in Copenhagen in 1991 and released this album only weeks before his seventeenth birthday. It won the Danish Grammy for "Best Electronica Album" in '08. I believe he's got a second album due to be released here before the end of the year, and he's doing the film score for a major Swedish film called "Fuerteventura".

A lot of fucking awesome noises and orchestral swooshes (yes, that's proper terminology). Glitchy at times, drone-y at others, always very melodic and interesting. He's got some vocals in a few songs. I don't know how to describe it.

Favorite track so far is Stilhed. dskafj;djsfa;lskdjfa;lsdkfasdf

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
