Islands In The Stream

0 comments
another cover for you lover(s). this time a remake of dolly parton and kenny rogers' 1983 hit. seems like this cover was released all the way back in april 2008. i guess i missed that train, but i've lucky managed to find myself on the return leg. it's a nice collaboration between canadians; feist and constantines.

so i've mentioned dolly and kenny, but what most people don't know is that "islands in the stream" was actually written by the bee gees.

hello.
have you been introduced?
this is Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs.
Yes, completely ridiculous name for a funkier James Blake type.

and this is the one that made me fall in love with him, in case you didn't already know each other -

the potential in noise.

i'm not usually one to go out of my way to put a band down but Wild Flag were following me around on the internet like a bad smell and I wanted to know why their perfume's attractive to a-n-y-o-n-e?

Wild Flag performs 'Nothing' on Sound Opinions from WBEZ on Vimeo.



when i first heard them, i thought they were kind of fun, in the same way the late 90s and early 00s were fun, but not musically great.



i thought maybe i should be quiet because they're women and the sisterhood's quite important, so i went deeper:



and now i'm more confused than ever. Help?

another sunday song, a band: Camus and the Cat; named after the two loves of one boy. It's a bedroom project, a tea-time project, with the kind of earnest voice that makes you smile.


a solo project, but with friends too:

part of the Odd Future Collective, he may not seem to fit into their gang, but he's nailed the whole "Urban-Emotional" genre thing and could probably sit quite nicely next to The Weeknd.
