Rollin’ & Scratchin’

New Caribou for ya!  It’s been a few years since Dan Snaith dropped his spectacular ‘Andorra’, which won the 2007 Polaris Music Prize here in Canada.  Well, his new album, ‘Swim’, Caribou drops April 2010 and he’s graced us with the first single, ‘Odessa’.  Different take on his usual psychedelia, but a fresh spin on this continually entertaining artist.

Brand-spanking new track, ‘Saturday Comes Slow’, from the Massive Attack crew featuring non-other than the genre shape-shifter himself, Damon Albarn.  Keep a close eye out for the New Massive Attack album and a slew of very hot remixes to be released in the coming months.

No doubt that the hype surrounding Vampire Weekend’s latest release, ‘Contra’, has been overwhelming.  Kudos to them Ivy League boys for putting together a fantastic album.

Cashing in on the hype is The Very Best, a much buzzed about band from Malawi by way of Paris by way of…..well you get the idea.  “Warm Heart of Africa” is the first single off the album of the same name and features the warm vocal stylings of non-other than Ezra Koenig of Vampire Weekend.  What a terrific song.  Now lets see a The Very Best and Vampire Weekend tour this summer at strictly outdoor venues.
