Playlist 255 - Feb 26 2013

New music from two fine Cork bands this week. The Vincent(s)’ (pictured) debut single is out Friday – a little bit of Link Wray meets Nirvana Unplugged – and The Altered Hours release their Sweet Jelly Roll EP in April. The title track is a slow burn psych rock affair with a hint of MBV about it. Looking forward to hearing more from both bands.

Garage rock was out in force this week actually. We also had a blast of Ty Segall, as well as The 13th Floor Elevators from the 1st Psychedelic Wave.

We also had The (wonderful) National, playing Cork in June; Darren Hayman on the English Civil War; new singles from Ariel Pink, Polly Scattergood, Brendan Benson & Mikal Cronin; the latest in the Collision/Detection series featuring Isnaj Dui. More beautiful chamber folk from Amor de Dias and some great classic soundtrack from Leonard Bernstein from the film West Side Story.

Best of 2014 - Part 4: Jazz/Chamber/Orchestral/Wonky/Ambient/Minimalist

Image
And so the final part of this journey back through 2014. I've titled this bunch in favour of the Orchestral/Jazz end of the pop spectrum but there are certainly a few refugees from Dream Pop, Folk, maybe even Soul (and one showtune). Who's counting though. There are also a good number of Electronic pieces in here as promised, but more of minimalist, downtempo and/or industrial leanings. Mood wise, I think this set hangs together pretty well. Whatever, there's a lot of great music in here for sure. Just as a reminder, here are the other three parts of my 2014 Review. http://www.theundergroundofhappiness.blogspot.ie/2014/12/best-of-2014-part-1-folkrootscountry.html http://www.theundergroundofhappiness.blogspot.ie/2014/12/best-of-2014-part-2-soulpopjangleelectr.html http://www.theundergroundofhappiness.blogspot.ie/2015/01/best-of-2014-part-3-psychkrautrockpunkb.html 1.
