A lovely song of sidechained bliss with a slightly nonsense video. Shot well, but full of pretty people setting up for an American Apparel shoot or something. The song is good, I promise.
From MMOTHS self titled debut EP released last month on SQE Music.

“Bayberry Lane” is the first single off m4w, the second album from Uncles, a Queens-based band comprised of Will Schwartz, Dan Bateman, Tom White, and Graham Watson. The song tumbles peacefully along, shifting through a somber tone before culminating in a sincere, satisfying peak.
I cant’t seem to track down when m4w was released, but you can stream the album over on Uncles’ Soundcloud.
I feel that London’s Trailer Trash Tracys will get a bit bigger this year as their reverb throwback sound is prefect to enable their inevitable rise. Check out a few videos below:
“Wish You Were Red”
“Strangling Good Guys (Live)”
Just to get this out of the way, I don’t think I have much kind to say about Lil B. My first exposure to him was through Clams Casino and when hearing the track he did for Lil B with and without vocals…I vastly preferred the version without his rapping. This song tumbles down the same route; the beat is amazing and while Stunnaman does a good job, the moment Lil B starts, the quality drops. While I didn’t intend for this to just be a slam on Lil B, I guess I’ve never really been called to voice my opinion on him. Instead, focus on the head nodding, glitchy clatter that Star Slinger brings to the table and enjoy.
Nobody asked for this, but regardless, the internet provides and everyone will adore it.
Welcome to the brave new future that is a loving, all pug recreation of the 1995 Bone Thugs-N-Harmony classic “1st of Tha Month”.
Here’s the original for comparison:
Internet, I consider this an early birthday present. Thank you.
Here is the gorgeously weird video for Alpine’s single “Hands” directed by Luci Schroder. The song is a preview of their forthcoming debut album, coming sometime in 2012 on Ivy League. You can grab their first EP now on iTunes.
Also good: Star Slinger’s remix of Alpine’s Icypoles.
