Gauntlet Hair

Yeah, so more of this please.  It is like lo fi, indie-ish stuff, but whatever.  Took me a few listens, but now I'm hooked.  These guys will probably get kind of big in a little while.  They have a demo with three tracks, and a 7" with two of those tracks from the demo.  And another 7" soon?  Highly recommend "I Was Thinking".  All recordings to this point are streaming on myspace.

Twin Shadow

Some real, deep-space, lo-fi shit right here.  Yeah, lo-fi (or pop in general*) and I rarely get along well, so this is all a bit new to me.  This guy is super hipster, but his beats are so fresh.  Been jamming out to his LP everyday for almost a week now.  Its titled Forget.  It is streaming on his webpage.  Really laid back.  So very good, if you like this kind of stuff that is.  Very 80s sounding.  Below are two music videos.  Watch both, because each are quite different, tones of the two songs aside, even.  Also, there's a link to a review down there.  It explains his music better than I could.

"Castles in the Snow"

"Slow"
