There aren't as many new releases this time of year so we're going to do something extra special this week, you can get ANY title listed on our saki/CTD staff Best Of 2013 lists for 20% off! We're keeping many of these records in our staff picks section by the front window to make them easier to find!
Here are a few that we (obviously) highly recommend:
Once again recorded at their home in the south of France, "Costa Blanca" pushes the envelope of their signature Franc-o-phonic sound; the coloeur cafe cool of Gainsbourg, the hypnotic drone of VU-era Cale, and the spiky fuzz of Davie Allan. This time around the band laces the tunes with a dramatic flair of French New Wave soundtracks and the percussive sonic accents found in Morricone's work in "Il Gruppo", for it's funk-laced tracks incorporated with elements of avant-classical and experimental sonic elements
Final installment in a trilogy of solo albums. Vocal contributions from Justin Vernon (BON IVER) on 4 songs. Signals the full flourishing of Stetson's unique talents as both composer and performer, pressing his arsenal of virtuosic saxophone techniques into the service of vivid, impassioned and conceptually astute songcraft.
Collaborative duo of guitarist/composer Dave Harrington and electronic producer Nicolas Jaar. They summon a hybrid of electronic music, psychedelic rock, and dancefloor techno with the sort of artistic depth and breadth for which the term 'progressive' was coined.
