Butterlist 6.17.11

THING OF BEAUTY. Just look how nice these CDs look, thanks to the Made Shop. Can’t wait for the LIMITED-EDITION 180g COLORED VINYL!   Come to my Album Release Show on 6/28 at Public Assembly in Brooklyn and get one from my personal stash  The CD tray gives me a serious case of the Mickey Mouse. Not ideal, but whatever.  Check out the Made Shop’s site for some incredible b-roll from the shoot, and then hire them.

Check out this album and its beauty. Very neat! You should go on to http://sonlux.tumblr.com/ to see Ryan Lott’s own take on the work. The Son Lux album release show is on June 28th at the Public Assembly. It’s gonna be a good show but you don’t have to take my word for it.

So it has been too long since I’ve had a playlist for ya’ll! What, like three weeks? That’s offensive.

I’m digging heavy synthesizer and moody music this week. Unlike Ford and Lopatin, all apologizing for their MIDIs and junk. Have fun with Wild Beasts and Gardens & Villa and good ol’ Future Islands. Don’t worry though, Bleached (ex-Mika Miko, which were so much fun) and Mozart Parties are a a good change of pace for all of you analog people. Pearl and the Beard just sound down right out of place, but they got some great harmonies and stompin’ folk.

Get the playlist after the jump!
