SLEEP

Sleep in the nude or you ain't shit.

VCR (The xx Cover) - The Antlers This shit cray. While the xx announced six days ago that they've started working on their second album, I give you this to help with the wait.


Amor Fati (Clams Casino Remix) - Washed Out That Within and Without shit you love, slowed down a few BPM, making for more soothing vocals. Spoon to this.


Kimmi in a Rice Field (Balam Acab Remix) - Twin Sister A remix to Twin Sister's debut LP, In Heaven. It's Experimental pop from Brooklyn that you dig more than ever because beatmaker Balam Acab drowned it. 

Kimmi in a Rice Field (Glitter Bones Remix) - Twin Sister Glitter Bones? An unsigned duo from Chicago who describes their genre as fantasy and "the swinging sound of hoop earrings." Sounds accurate to me. Check it out for yo'self.

Keep Me There - Nicolas Jaar From our favorite American-Chilean musician. Did you know: he's currently studying comparative literature at Brown University. My guess is he blazes all day, makes music, and then pretends to read books when in actuality, he's ripping out the pages to use as rolling paper.

Time For Us - Nicolas Jaar This one has less of a tango sound to it and more of an indie bullshit sound. The male vocals are as hypnotic as it gets. Did we mention Jaar is the founder of his own record label? Yeah, that's Clown and Sunset, bitch.

Balance - Future Islands Pop from Baltimore, MD created by artists who claim to draw their influence from cloudy days and love.

Miranda (School Of Seven Bells Remix) - Surfer Blood Dreamy chimes infused with vaguely mechanical clanking and "demonic synths." 

Here's the video for "Kimmi in a Rice Field." It's probably kind of creepy and I'm probably a freak so there's that.

Shleeeeeepin' it,

amadZ!

SLEEP

Sun (Midland Re-Edit) - Caribou Apparently this is by Caribou, not Washed out (thanks to whoever commented), so please edit in your iTunes yo.


Gobstopper (No Games Remix) - J Dilla Sounds like "Finally Moving" by Pretty Lights. And c'mon, it's J Dilla. Big names to go with big games.


Acid Raindrops - People Under the Stairs "Mary jane invades my brain, now I can't complain. I'm saying' what else is there to do besides relaxes. Let the problems in your minds become ancient artifacts. Perhaps these raps can help you alleviate."


Big (Nicolas Jaar Version) - Sneaky Sound System Starts off like "15 Step" by Radiohead and then breaks off with the more effeminate and pained vocals. I don't know why but I feel like the singer is naked and cold as she sings of "always" being "by your side."


Tonight, Tonight, Tonight (Edit) - Low Roar Low Roar? Five dudes from Reykjavík, Iceland who wanted to make a fucking record. Starts off like "Koyaanisqatsi" by Philip Glass (but I only know that 'cus I'm a freak), and then gets more indie as opposed to Gregorian chant meets Satan. Wunderbar male vocals, by the way.


Fre$ca - North Highlands I don't really know what this is or what it means to me. From a Brooklyn band whose members identify their interests as: stick and poke tattoos, post industrial shanty towns, friends, ever, and sandwiches.


Silent Night - Class Actress This is cheesy and not my style and I hate the Christmas hype, but I do love Class Actress and she does have ones of the softest voices around right now so here you go. Now shut the fuck up.


And finally:
Ukulele Tragedy by Behram Riar

amadZ!
