The Sandwitches - Our Toast

"The Sandwitches are a band straight out of a David Lynch film. Wide eyed beauties, hardened against the cold San Francisco air, voices bellowing like the capricious winds, sometimes low and meandering, sometimes high and haunting. Roxanne Young's drums ramble through song after song with a strange, unpredictable and perfect lightness, while near-moans and sky-high melodies collide in a soundtrack to the end of the world. Songs on this record deal with the most playful moments in a new love, the most charming parts of decay, the heart wrenching feeling of impending doom at the dawning of something new. This record is a seamless follow up to their previous release, Mrs. Jones' Cookies, a record teeming with, for the most part, a spirit possessed by possibility; pure and potent potential. Our Toast is a causal record, the beautiful, raw come down. The spell has been broken and this new batch of songs lingers in the space between. The Sandwitches took songs born of universal anguish to create a record blooming with whimsical notes on a life that’s changing chapters." - Emily Rose (Ty Segall Band)

Recorded by Kelley Stoltz and mastered by Mikey Young, Our toast, by The Sandwitches, is available on LP/CD/Digital via Empty Cellar Records and Revolver USA.

The Sandwitches - Wickerman Mambo

A sonic orchestral shoegazey summer pop song, from the new album, London's Leaving Me.

Bigger Than Sound (And Greater Than Us)

Presents for Sally return with ‘Wishawaytoday’, possibly their most accessible and poppiest song to date. The title track oozes the confidence and swagger of a band on top of their game and promises great things for the forthcoming LP ‘Colours & Changes’. The UK band have always blended their influences effortlessly which range from anything from late 80’s/early 90s UK and US indie bands to dance music and classic hip hop which has always made reviewers struggle to pin down the bands sound.

Presents For Sally - Wishawaytoday

Tracked live at Type Foundry recording studio in Portland, OR with Peter Broderick on drums and Dave Depper on bass

Heather Woods Broderick excels at distilling her experiences into a soulful melancholy that's enduring both for it's intimate relatable moments and its persistent sense of mystery. Her uncanny ear for evocative production and gorgeous vocal harmonies serves her well on her new album Glider. Throughout the album, the rich dreamlike atmospheres she creates hint at a darkness looming on the horizon, while the singularity of her ethereal voice always seems to linger long after the music has stopped.

NEW SINGLE: ONCE 
FIRST CUT FROM SECOND ALBUM BLASTOMA

Born in the Papua New Guinean town famous as the last place Amelia Earhart flew out of before meeting her demise, Ngaiire spent her first few years in NZ in an almost exclusively Maori primary school, exposed to as much ballet and opera as her parents could get her to. 

Returning to PNG a few years later, her first experience of live music was watching American college big bands on tour, and her flair for costuming developed by her fashion designer mother’s keen eye for the dramatic. 

Growing up listening to the reggae, Australian Top 40, and her Mum’s Mariah Carey and Cliff Richard albums, it wasn’t until Ngaiire’s family moved to Australian that her musical outlook went wide lens. She heard Ani DiFranco, Jeff Buckley, Tool, Sarah Vaughan, Debussy and Gershwin for the first time, and went to her first ever gig – Machine Gun Fellatio, officially blowing her mind, and inspiring a Visual Arts major work for highschool that essentially filled her mother’s loungeroom with fake gigantic phalluses. 

Joining bands and studying for her Bachelor of Jazz Studies at the Conservatorium of Music, Ngaiire somehow ended up on Australian Idol - hint: it was her incredible voice that did it. The more illuminating experiences, though, were touring extensively throughout the UK, Japan, Europe and Canada as a backing singer with Blue King Brown, and commencing an enduring collaborative friendship with electronic music don Paul Mac. Ngaiire, global citizen, now felt she had the universe in the palm of her hands. 

Releasing her future-soul debut Lamentations in 2013 to some acclaim, leading to her first ever slot at Glastonbury and shows with Alicia Keys and John Legend, Ngaiire has left no genre unturned in her search for herself. While she’s spent time writing music for dance companies, creating crazy sound installations for David Walsh’s MONA FOMA, collaborating with fashion designers, dreaming of working with Warhol and Phillip Glass and generally being a boho-R’n’B- weirdo-dilettante, the biggest project for this powerhouse performer has been new record Blastoma.

Without doubt, one of Australia’s most unique, eclectic and fearless artists, as evidenced by her electric shows, spine-tingling vocal deliveries and outrageous costumes, Ngaiire now releases Blastoma’s first single, ‘Once’. Co-written with mega-babes Megan Washington and Paul Mac, and produced by Paul Mac and Jack Grace, ‘Once’ is about taking risks that turn into revelations: story of her life. 

Strong and true and powerful. LITTLE ROLLING STONE

You can't stop this talented young singer's momentum. TONE DEAF

There is no doubt in my mind of the incredibly high value of her music in this world. BEAVER ON THE BEATS

Ngaiire is the very definition of originality. BBM LIVE

GRAVE121 - Des Ark 'Everything Dies'
Out October 6th, 2015

During the last decade, Aimée Collet Argote has had more bands called Des Ark than she has albums under that name. She's howled and jerked in sweaty houses and rock clubs, backed by a drummer, another drummer, yet another drummer and a second guitarist, and a small symphony. She's brought big crowds to a whisper with nothing but her voice and a banjo or a tiny guitar that kept slipping out of tune. And though it perennially confuses the crap out of crowds expecting one thing & getting the other, she somehow manages to maintain these two separate Des Ark's -- different songs, utterly different audience experiences -- and the dissonance & tension in turn somehow bind together in a brilliant display of songwriting. 

Des Ark just finished up their 3rd full length, "Everything Dies", with a host of collaborators & engineers including Andy Lemaster (Bright Eyes/Drive By Truckers), Jonathan Fuller (Engine Down/Denali), Brian Paulson (Wilco/Beck), Jordan Geiger (Shearwater/Hospital Ships), Taylor Holenbeck (Appleseed Cast) & Thor Harris (Swans). It is scheduled to be released October 6th, 2015 on Graveface Records.

Mac DeMarco // My Kind of Woman

"YOUNG HEART"

(Maclaren)
Time…Makes you feel
Many splendid things we did
Time…is calling 
For us, feels like lying 
And you find your self in an others clothes 
With a face in your hands that no one knows, for LOVE…for LOVE
When you see yourself in the pouring rain 
With a wounded heart, well who’s to blame…it’s LOVE…it’s LOVE.

(Maclaren)
Time…Makes you feel the blame
From all the worry of the worries we seem to push away 

(Guillen)
And time…is waiting 
On us, Anticipating 

(Maclaren, Guillen)
And you find your self in an others clothes 
With a face in your hands that no one knows, for LOVE…for LOVE
When you see yourself in the pouring rain
With a smoke in your hand, well who’s to blame…it’s LOVE…it’s LOVE.

(Maclaren, Guillen)
So take yourself…away from here…
It’s true, in the dark, when we say good night.
In our beds we feel so alive 
Feel your self in the pouring rain
And it happens, it happens, over and over again…

(Choir)
And our young hearts, will live in the shadows

(Maclaren)
Love…Love is Greed
