Vídeo: Toro Y Moi - So Many Details

Damn, Chaz Bundick how are you so fly?

Toro Y Moi's latest tune 'So Many Details', a single off his forthcoming LP Anything In Return, gets paired with some stunning visuals crafted by HARRYS; Chaz getting driven around by a rather sultry lady, struttin’ his stuff on the tarmac in slow-mo, and wearing a host of fine turtlenecks— I really don’t know what else I could ask for.

From Regla, Cuba: Una Sesión con Obsesión

Last week I was in Regla, Cuba, an industrial suburb situated on a small peninsula to the east of Havana. Two members of the cuban hip-hop group Obsesión, Alexey and Magia, whom I’d met the week before at their show in downtown Havana, welcomed me into their home, a small but confortable apartment lined with posters of Bob Marley, Tupac and Marvin Gaye and Afrocuban artwork. They were two of the most sincere and genuinely wonderful people I met during my time in Havana. From their rooftop we watched a grey haze billow out of the nearby oil refineries and drift over the soft pastels of Habana Vieja across the bay. After the sun slipped behind el capitolio in the distance, and after a hour of back in forth that never strayed far from the topics of the connection between Cuban hip-hop and social activism, the government-orchestrated Cuban Rap Agency, we moved into the duo’s modest studio. Surrounded by little more than a duct-taped microphone, an computer running outdated recording software, a synth purchased while touring abroad and a graffitied cuban flag, Alexey and Magia never wiped the smiles from their faces. Their smiles were infectious. As dusk’s faint patina of day quickly drifted into night, their voices illuminated the room.

Here’s some Valentine’s Day lovin’ to the tune of Jack Colleran’s, aka MMOTHS, “HEART feat KSIA" off his debut EP which drops March 5th on SQE. A misty dusk. A summer night. Flickering fire-soaked faces.

Video • Happy Trendy - January 6

Edmonton’s Happy Trendy (Dylan Khotin-Foote) recently returned from a European journey alongside fellow Canadian Warren Hildebrand of Foxes In Fiction. They traveled from Portugal to Germany. A week ago, before their show in Leipzig Germany, Dylan preformed ‘January 6’ off his new album Die Young— check out an imitate clip from that night ›

Video • Blackbird Blackbird - Tear

Brendan Canty of Feel Good Lost crafted this beautiful video for Blackbird Blackbird's jam 'Tear' off his upcoming Boracay Planet EP. Full of blended layers and sprinkled with splattering bokeh, these images match the tune perfectly. •

Video • Youth Lagoon - 17

Youth Lagoon’s ‘17’ shines through as my favorite track off his debut album The Year of Hibernation, which dropped a month ago. Although not quite as epic as the video for ‘Montana’, Kasey Lum’s video for ‘17’ beautifully captures a boy living unconstrained by limits of reality. “Don’t stop imagining. The day that you do is the day that you die”

Video • Southern Shores - Meridian

When I listen to Southern Shores’ Atlantic, I can’t imagine the music flowing from someone’s fingertips— it seems to flow from the sun, drift in from sea. At the beginning of the summer, Jamie Townsend and Ben Dalton played their first ever live show in their hometown of Halifax, Nova Scotia. Based on Andrew Hines’ video from that night, I must find a way to one of those show. Supremely sultry and sweaty, these tropical blissfests burn long into the night— night is young.

[Video] Algodón Egipcio - El Día Previo

Caracas, Venezuela’s Algodón Egipcio released his debut album La Lucha Constante back in March on Lefse and now one of my favorite tracks of the release, El Día Previo, has a set of visuals to accompany it. Directed by Pablo Ortiz, the video is a sort of multilingual karaoke prompt scrolling over stunning nature scenes— check ittt

Southern Shores // Bonfire

Southern Shores are back from Berlin. Now at home in Halifax, they have a new album. It is gold.

A long drive North, spurred on by Southern Shores, six tracks repeated as we careened through valleys. We climbed. We followed the conversation from mountaintop to mountaintop. Each foot fell to the beat of this epic topical bliss. Atlantic, the duo’s debut EP, dropped on the 12th on Cascine. Decked out with so many smooth transportive tunes, I cannot think of this album as individual tracks. I’ve only listened to the EP as whole, never able, or wanting, to pull myself back from a far off place. I have placed together some footage I’ve filmed with some that I’ve found to go alongside a new mix of ‘Bonfire’ (non-album) which flew in a few days ago from The Apiary.

This album shall not be overlooked.
