Singles That Mingle

With Captain Stavros

 

Bonnie Trash – Poison Kiss

Mourning Out Now Via Hand Drawn Dracula!

Things I miss about not being in Canada. 1) Dill Pickle Chips (Crisps). 2) Being able to catch Bonnie Trash on tour.

 

BRUIT ≤ - Data

The Age of Ephimerality Out April 25 Via Pelagic

Confusing music with a clear message.

 

Dean Johnson w/Lake Charles – Blue Moon

Out April 11 Via Saddle Creek

We really, really, like it. Playful, well written and always a sucker for slide guitar and electric pianos.

 

Panic Shack – Gok Wan

Out Now Via Brace Yourself Records

Back with a punch, and looking good, but that’s not all they do.

 

LA Witch – The Lines

DOGGOD Out April 4 Via Suicide Squeeze Records

LA Witch back with The Lines, of which they’ve surely crossed many.

 

Maria Iskariot – Leugenaar

A song that’s got your number and expressly feels like your time is running out. We’re here for it, while we last.

 

CocoRosie – Pushing Daisies

Little Death Wishes Out March 28 Via Joyful Noise

That is the filthiest bass we’ve heard in a donk’s.

 

Florist – Moon, Sea, Devil

Jellywish Out April 4 Via Double Double Whammy

We bathed in the light of all three.

 

Sally Shapiro – The Other Days

Ready To Live A Lie Out May 30 Via Italians Do It Better

That guitar trembles with anticipation. An uppercut of a swing from J.

 

Joni – Still Young

Thing I Left Behind Out April 11 Via Hand In Hive/Keeled Scale

You’ve got nothing to fear from this one and everything to gain.

The latest dispatch from our London Correspondent, Captain Stavros

 Laundromat – ‘Combo’

 Out Now on Brace Yourself Records

Next Gig: Servant Jazz Quarters February 17

A rich mosaic of our favourite sounds. Definitely feels like a nod to The Breeders – ‘Cannonball’ bassline mashed up with Beck’s Odelay album.

 

 

 

 

Erasers – ‘Constant Connection’

Out April 22 on Night School Records

Perth duo compile a mesmerizing and haunting soundscape. Effortlessly blurring the lines between a dreamscape and reality.

 

 

 

 

Mauv – ‘Paradise’

Out April 8th on All My Thoughts

A single we felt that earns your attention. Curious and interesting, worth a listen.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Efterklang – ‘Alien Arms’

From the album Wildflowers – Out Now on City Slang Records

Touring: London @ EartH, March 1

Efterklang is new to us. The video for ‘Alien Arms’ caught our attention specifically because of its collaborative approach which is something that comes through in their music too.

 

 

 

 

Panic Shack – ‘Mannequin Man’

Debut EP Baby Shack, out April 8 on Brace Yourself Records

Stripped back garage rock made by a bunch of troublemakers.
