Today's CD Deep Dive Jamboree Fest picks are Thelonious Monk's Monk's Dream, full of choppy piano stabs, Pelican's The Fire in Our Throats Will Beckon the Thaw, an elemental metal odyssey, Gato Barbieri's Caliente!, a hothouse sax reverie, Honey Cutt's Coasting, a collection of downcast surf tunes, and Snow Patrol's A Hundred Million Suns, for my inner sensitive teenager.
Today's CD Deep Dive Jamboree Fest picks (courtesy of LA's @recordsurplus and @amoebahollywood) are Kid Cudi's Man on the Moon II: The Legend of Mr. Rager, bleary and full of "mmmm" ad-libs, The Octopus Project's One Ten Hundred Thousand Million, a combination of live drums and bleepy synths, Sarah Vaughan's self-titled, a languid classic of vocal jazz featuring trumpeter Clifford Brown, Loop's A Gilded Eternity, which boils rock music down to a propulsive drone, and Jack Johnson's Brushfire Fairytales, playing in coffee shops everywhere.
Today’s CD Deep Dive Fest picks are Ride’s Tarantula, unearthed from a former chicken barn up in Maine, tUnE-yArDS’ Whokill, an eclectic, confrontational riot, and Alvvays’ Blue Rev, full of pearlescent daydream anthems about growing up and being sad.
