Tea Leigh “Left Behind”

Ryan Boos — Sat, 28 Jan 2012 13:23:26 +0000

This morning, the sun is slowly rolling out of bed to wash over the cold ground from our volatile winter. Tea Leigh out of Boston releases another lo-fi folk treat through her soundcloud page. You can find a dozen gems on there. On this one titled “Left Behind” its particularly sad. She sings about death potential, and suggests not to give up. We all are better served to believe in love, and faith, and companionship. As she has in the past, Tea reveals the beauty of the little things,”love is like a school yard, you dared me to do it” she sings on “Left Behind.” I couldn’t agree more, I remember those days running free without the worry and responsibility. Good Morning to you all. This one goes well with the calm relaxing view outside your window, with a dark brew carrying through the house. Well done lady.

Adam Stolz Live In Kona, Hawaii

Ryan Boos — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 17:54:12 +0000

Adam Stolz has been doing his thing for over a decade. And his new live mix from the Electronic Music Festival in Kona, Hawaii doesn’t disappoint. After listing to it twice this morning, its literally one of those “every track is dope” mixes. A constant hook, with continual hard not to dance to bass lines. I’ve know Adam for almost as long as he’s been at this, and like his new live Mix, he always brings the hot shit.

Adam is inches away from releasing more new tracks, and celebrating the opening of a brand new label called AUTEM in collaboration with a variety of super talents from around the world. Cheers!

” New Chicago based label, Autem Audio, is the brainchild collaboration of five friends: GVK, Sarp Yilmaz, DJ Da, Adam Stolz and Hearthug. All of them internationally acknowledged artists in their own right they have each enjoyed great success on different labels, now they join forces to establish a new fresh platform to release their own music with soul and passion. The concepts behind Autem are to develop each artists individuality and help push them creatively to new levels while still keeping the sound dance friendly with an underground spirit. The focus and attitude will be driven by a backing of quality production and researched sounds, while keeping the feel deep and yet also with a sense of humor. The Autem camp takes pride in their work and wants listeners to enjoy their productions, especially if that means losing it on the dance floor with smiles on their faces.”

In the months to come we’ll be doing an interview with Adam to discuss his career as an Electronic Music Producer, and DJ, along with the goings on with the new label.

Visiting Houses

Ryan Boos — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 16:45:15 +0000

Visiting Houses have released their remix of The Cyclist track “An Abyss Part 1″ This is the bands first release of material under the name. We have to point out who they are because frankly they have dedicated their lives to all things Indie, or better yet DIY. The project is from Liz and Dwight Pavlovic, undoubtedly a wonderful couple whose creative dedications find them starting a new magazine/webiste called Decoder, with long time friend and originator of the now defunct Get Off The Coast music blog, Jheri Evans. Its really a perfect union of artistry, which creates a massive amount of content on a daily basis. When they are not covering indie acts, the three sign bands to their popular Tape Label, Crash Symbols. The Pavlovic’s also own and operate Fig + Fox, a freelance design company that has in recent months, released some amazing cover art for bands and music projects around the world. Later this year we’ll learn all about their endeavors with a lengthy interview, and a artist mix that will be part of our series on iTunes. For now lets focus on their first musical release under the moniker Visiting Houses.

Visiting Houses “An Abyss Part 1 (Visiting Houses’ Creamed Corn Remix)” Off The Cyclists Remix Album by Twilight_Frequencies

Their Creamed Corn remix is filled with shades of dawn, or the stroll through an indifferent revelation about what to do next. This is a song you might find resting somewhere, nestled within the in between. When listening to the tune, which is nothing if not a tad bit on the scary side, you do find some flutters of hope, even if they come wrapped in angst. In a weird way its an epic struggle to find your way through, to find something other than, to find something. I have had many days like this one, the fog and misty ambience of nature that implies a greater good, but the lack of know how to find it. Think about all the lines that cross around you in life. The plants that grow or die, the water running from the rain, the rock slide in your main entrance. This song is impressive for a first release, not because of how much is going on musically (its quite minimal), but how much comes through the way in which they deliver it. On this one, Visiting Houses paint cinematic pictures for you to ruminate on.

The remix is off the new release on Crash Symbols called Rending Brass, The Cyclist Remixes. Its a nine track album you can download for free, or purchase the limited edition tape for five bones - A dynamite deal indeed!

Those Lavender Whales

There’s a certain charm to this band, a care free yet dedicated act whose music reminds me of something out of a romantic coming of age tale, where the couple is running through the city trying to find one another. Tomahawk of Praise LP/CD January 17, 2012 on Fork & Spoon Records!

Conversations With Street Lights

Ryan Boos — Sat, 15 Oct 2011 11:30:43 +0000

This is the award winning short film from writer and director Jacob Boyd. Jacob is currently working on the music video for Nomadic Firs “Vines.” In Conversations With Street Lights, you’ll find an array of emotion which are all captured to show the brain reflecting and processing them. Boyd does an amazing job putting you in the characters positions. I couldn’t help but feel the tension, the love, and yearning the main character is going through. This is life, without the idealism or fiction.
