----Jogger----
A lot of really cool psyche-rock is coming out of LA right now, really innovative, soul penetrating stuff. Jogger are a live electronic act composed of Jonathan Larroquette and Amir Yaghmai combining psyche-folk leanings similar Animal Collective and Ratatat with the sort of beat science trimmings more associated with the many faces of Daedelus. This Great Pressure is their debut full length release on the new Alpha Pup Records imprint, Magical Properties, and clearly demonstrates a distinct sound and a band ready to embrace the world with their fantastic sound. Jogger’s aesthetic centres around a few well chosen sonic themes, from afrobeat to the electronic rhythmic from techno crescendos and perfectly timed drops to glitched bit-tastic hiphop. What really stands out are their ethereal vocal harmonies that seem to transcend popular music, giving the project a very indie-friendly edge. Check out their music video for their single "Nephicide" below and also check out a live video of them performing "Gorilla Meat" at the LA based public radio station, KCRW.

-Daedelus-
So i'm sitting on the bus just minding my own bidness and Daedelus comes on the pod. Now my entire being is bombarded by melodramatic, psychedelic, experimental pop and i'm digging every second of it. Born Alfred Weisberg-Roberts in Santa Monica, CA, this producer/instrumentalist has become a force in the exerimental music realm cutting, welding, slashing, remixing, splicing, joining, and reworking any and every sound. Sometimes its almost sounds like electronic jazz, even more so when he incorporates live horns or strings. The end result is musique concrète, and something that is, at times, chaotic but entirely exciting. So now I get home and I go to the u2b to try and find some video of him mixing, turns out he uses this machine that is so... square, but it is pretty in the dark. Check it out below performing "Fair Weather Friends" followed by some other tunes...His latest endeavor is the Love To Make Music To a digital LP released in 2008, featuring songs of "dance and romance", is available for download from iTunes. Keep on exploring. Enjoy.
