Oh snap, it’s an up & coming sandwich for you to munch on today.  New wave duo Small Black out of Lon Gisland have teamed up with the present king of Georgia, Washed Out, to remix each other’s tracks before they go on tour together for the next few months (SXSW included).  Check out their MySpace for more tracks and tour dates.

ASHA PUTHLI: THE LOVE DIGGER

Monday, February 1st, 2010

Asha Puthli is a weirdo.  But around these parts weird is always a good thing.  She digs love and covers this George Harrison track beautifully with vocals so smokey seductive they’d put Eartha Kitt’s Cat Woman to shame.  Ooooh yeah, baby.

ASHA PUTHLI – I DIG LOVE

NEW NEW NEW WITH THE CARIBOU

Caribou_Swim_cover_art_hi-res

Weird, organic, and funky as hell with a not so subtle sensitivity, Caribou comes correct with a bit of a different style on the lead single from his new album “Swim” all set to wash up on shores in April.  Open up your ears and let the world come on in.

CARIBOU – ODESSA

It’s dumping snow up here in Lake Tahoe right now!!!

The entire area is bracing itself for the biggest storm since the late great Chris Farley’s “El Nino” storm back in ‘98 and we’ve banging this smooth criminal ever since the flakes started falling…

WASHED OUT – FEEL IT ALL AROUND

MAKIN’ DARK ORCHESTRAL MOVES

Pure 80’s whimsical magic right here.  Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark capped off their classic 1984 album, Junk Culture, with this subtle-with-the-funk reflective jam.  Those horn pads are so infectious!

O.M.D. – TALKING LOUD & CLEAR (12″ MIX)

SADE IS IN MY TAPE DECK…

…I’M MOVIN’ IN SLOW MOTION, BOI!

When I heard/saw that the forever gracious with the beautiful Sade was coming back to the world with another album of slow n’ sultry jams I just had to scan the archives and dig up this extended balearic tinged edit by Apiento of the subtle beast “Paradise”.

SADE – PARADISE (APIENTO EDIT)

*** Thanks to Dollar Bin Jams for the hook up.
