Is this a fresh new thing for that artist? I remember trying to get into them before I just didn't for whatever reason. This anything different from the past?
Thanks for the heads up!
I think some albums I've found infectious yet not highly ranked this year for whatever reason have been:
Beck- for some when Beck did this really pop record it wasn't the Midnight Vultures style many would expect from a pop like album. Even if Seventh Heaven is pretty obnoxious, the rest of the album has an upbeat feel layered in nothing less than you'd expect from Beck.
Vulfpeck - this is like Marvin Gaye meets They Might Be Giants. It's kind of serious Soul/Funk, but terribly silly at times too. I mean Bootsy Collins is on it.
Temples - for me really catchy melodies. I know they are seen by some as a copycat band of Tame Impala, but I dig.
that Tera Melos is a fun one for sure. its great that they're directly referencing speedrunning video games with the name and music video for Warpless Run, they both have that precise execution thing going on.
Vampire Weekend meets Panda Bear in the most serious and beautiful way possible. Mix-in some Poles, and you got one of the years best releases. Incredible stuff, don't sleep on it.
This is going to be my Egypt entry for my 80 Days project, here's the blerb I have for it:
Iโm unfamiliar of Nadah El Shazly, just decided to dive straight into her latest release. After I finished the album, Iโm still unfamiliar with Nadah El Shazly. This isnโt a describable albumโฆ jazz? post-rock? IDM? avant-classical? Regardless, musically, itโs a marvel, and one of 2017โs best undiscovered gems. Haunting, beautiful, yet full of groove. Think Jenny Hval if she broke.
