The Glade 4.0

+1. The whole album's really good.

Yeah that Dark Souls commercial has this song in it. Couldn't get Shazzam to identify it but Google came through.

Like.

This is the major function of commercials now to me: to introduce me to cool new music. This one was from...what, a Heineken commercial, I think? Yeah, sounds right.

Yup, that's what prompted it for me too:

Musical excellence.

I'm sorry. I see Mama Said Knock You Out, but all I can hear is the sound laid down by the Underground:

This is pretty rad.

If you like that, you might want to check out Jesca Hoop. I think I've pimped her once twice on the Glade before, but that song reminded me of these 3 songs of Hoop's in particular:

Intelligentactile 101:

(go here and look at the bottom of the article if the link above doesn't work)

Big Fish:


Money:



On a completely unrelated note, this song is...Dead. ****. Sexy. And it features one of my favorite vocalists ever. It will be featured on their debut album. Sadly it has been delayed, but I'm looking forward to hearing what these guys put out. I loves me some good trip-hop. Definitely shades of Massive Attack going on here.

Stereo Alchemy (w/ Melissa R. Kaplan), A Rapture:

Lyrics (because they're a little hard to make out):

_________________
Sail forth! steer for the deep waters only!
Reckless, O soul, exploring, I with thee, and thou with me;
For we are bound where mariner has not yet dared to go,
And we will risk the ship, ourselves and all.

Oh, and just for good measure -- yet more loop pedal worship

KT Tunstall, Black Horse and the Cherry Tree



Incredible.

that was so much better than the crappy version they overplayed on the radio

ooo

This performance is amazing, especially the last 60 seconds or so. Made even more so by the fact that she was a last minute replacement for an act that had to cancel. She had less than 24 hours to prepare.

Performing live with a looper takes epic cajones. One wrong move and it all comes crashing down. Her performance here is so complex it's mind boggling that she's able to keep it all together.
