Pick up the debut mixtape, House of Balloons from this mysterious Canadian R&B project now. Plus this unofficial vid somehow reminds one of sultry Swayze scenes in The Ghost. Oh yeah.
For those of you getting spring fever and searching for perfect gentlemen’s shoe, consider Oak Street Bootmakers oxfords. The camp and vibram sole options add a little ruggedness and zest while maintaining a classic appearance. Best of all, they are handcrafted in the U.S.A.
A great record to slack off to. Kurt Vile’s newest effortSmoke Ring For My Halorecalls the lazy talk-singing of Lou Reed and The Jesus and Mary Chain. Kurt Vile is more at home, in my opinion, with songs featuring less ornamentation. Case in point: other album highlights include “Runner Ups” and “Peeping Tomboy.”
A little cleaner than the muffled masterpiece that was their self-titled EP, Small Black returns with New Chain. Check out “Hydra,” my personal fave from their debut full length.
