YOU LIKE HIP-HOP. RIGHT?

Photobucket
Ok, then you know these guys already.

Right?

Weeeeelllll, if you 'like hip-hop', which EVERYBODY does now, right? You should.

I mean I get 'knowledge' dropped on me about things like how Drake & Young Money represent everything that's 'so awesome' about the genre these days (Weezy and Minaj excluded, I'm laughing), how Ricky Rose' is the best thing going right now (srsly?), and how because you know who Bel-Biv-Devoe is, you 'grew up raised on 80's and 90's hip hop' (um, nah) more than I can explain to you. It seems now days even your friends Mom wanna tell you who's hot in the street.

I don't know bout all that, but I DO know that if you REALLY REALLY dig the really realness, you will Sit Down, Man, Shut Up, Dude, and listen.

This is no debut, basement produced, ghetto ass mixtape. Nah, this is a Diplo/Boy-1da/Teengirl Fantasy/Chairlift/Dame Grease produced, Despot(!!!)/The Very Best/Roc Marciano/El-P/Quincy Jones/Jay-Z (haha) featuring, Mishka/Mad Decent sponsored banger.

Ok, resume akkin like you know...I'm lookin fresh, off to get my wedding party on.

Oh yeah, its not racist.

TODAY: RAIN x FALL x GLASSER.

PhotobucketI'm feeling these two songs from Glasser's debut LP, Ring, and have now found their earlier Apply EP, and am deciding I'm a fan. The vocalist, Cameron, just uses her voice amazingly and the music is cerebrally the shiiiit!

I just read this on PTST:
From the outset this thing is a winner, sure to guarantee at the very least some fawning reviews from the indie blogosphere (check!) and the dedication of a cross section of love struck indie-boys and indie-girls with high musical standards.
...ok, I kind of agree with all of that, and I guess I probably vaguely, (or blatantly?, nah.) fit into both of those categories.

Who knows, WTF.

Its raining in L.A. after a 110˚+ heat wave over the past couple of weeks...so this album is setting my mind for a minute today.

I love rain sometimes.

Ok, eat some vegetables and hydrate or die. Hopefully not trying...in the U.S. we have that luxury.

Oh and don't be this guy, or anyone who listens to him.

Glasser - Home


You should also get the album so you can hear the track following 'Home', 'Mirrorage', which is stupendous. However, I am just too wary of the ol' DMCA, so I'm not posting it myself, and can't finding a streaming instance of it yet. Also really loving 'T' from the album...

...this, new-to-me track (is in fact NOT) from their first recording, the Apply EP...

Glasser - Let Letter

And wowsers...these two remixes, one of 'Learn' from the EP and this remix of 'Tremel' (Ring) from Jamie of the XX.

Glasser - Tremel (Jamie Xx Remix)

Glasser - Learn (John Talabot Remix)
