CVJ+Gravenhurst+SisterCrayon+Keepaway
A new Casino Versus Japan was recently released on Freescha’s Attacknine label, I looped this interlude about 15 times the other night, it made falling asleep easier than ever, such a rich sound.
One of the most underrated Warp artists has to be Gravenhurst, She Dances veers off into more of a darker tone that’s less folk which I know them for and its more like early Broadcast with a hint of Pavement like guitars.
Time for crowd friendly indie, a youthful pick me up and Sister Crayon is the band behind it.
I’ve only heard 2 songs by Keepaway, both have been impressive and so was their live show, again there is the Animal Collective comparisons in the sound but they wear them proudly i’m sure. I do really enjoy the way these guys sing “and I got 5 rings” i’ve been saying it over and over all weekend long.

That Keepaway is pretty catchy, regardless of how much it sounds like something AC would do. Lovin’ that chorus too…

If I have to order the CD, I will have to record your post here Jakub and loop that until the CD comes in the mail.

March 16, 2010 at 1:11 amIf you’ve not already heard it, I’d hunt down the soundtrack to ‘Dead Man’s Shoes’ – Its got a great mix of Warp artists (the Gravenhurst track featured is pretty great) along with Calexico, Smog Laurent Garnier and others.
The soundtrack to Movern Callar is also worth investigating.
