The Drums+Washed Out+Solvent+Shlohmo
The Drums official LP dropped this week, i’ve been waiting for this for almost year I think. I had them down as writing my favorite song of 2009, definitely a perfect album to listen to while having fun with friends.
Washed Out is back and collaborates with Chairlift’ Caroline Polachek, a somber tempo and shows us that he’s on a great path of being able to make this sound something more than just a trendy genre, I hope to hear more.
Solvent’s new video debuted on Self-Titled’s site today and I had to share it with you, try not to fall in love with the characters that are playing the synths. I included the Vector Lovers remix below which is solid.
Shlohmo announced his upcoming EP called Camping which features a really nasty Shigeto remix, the EP also includes a remix by Baths and a few new cuts by the young talent.

June 9, 2010 at 12:42 pmOoo, that Washed Out song is a beauty! Is that a little Madonna I hear in there? Sounds like the intro to “Lucky Star”. Not ashamed to have known that. I rocked out to her classics at numerous slumber parties back in the day.
*The Drums doesn’t play for me either.

June 9, 2010 at 4:13 pmI’m in love with the Shigeto mix, his mixes continually amaze me yet Textures and Semi Circle EP are just ok.
Excellent stuff!

June 11, 2010 at 2:05 pmThe song on the Solvent video is hot. I’m not a huge Solvent fan (and his style reminds me of a song from a Geico commercial) but if his work progresses more in the vein of that video… yum.
