Read to discover the artists who made Pitch & Sync’s latest Tracks of the Week.
Simian Mobile Disco - Caught In A Wave
Simian Mobile Disco team up with all female singing collective Deep Throat Choir for an adventurous full-length, that is their first album to prominently feature vocals in nearly a decade. The combination is dreamlike and sometimes even a bit nightmarish; this is certainly not “easy listening”. But it is well worth a listen!
The first pure piano melody of Jon Hopkins new album ‘Singularity’, recorded on an old tape recorder. A moment of acoustic simplicity, as a relief from all the electronics, on this excellent record.
Amber spends much of the EP playing with the rhythms and instrumentation of bossa nova. She makes her intentions clear by solidifying the title track with a classic, sensual beat, but ‘Conexão’ doesn’t dip into gimmickry.
The unearthly ‘New Moons’ features a sparsely strummed guitar part with defined chords, aglow from start to finish, perhaps one haunted vocal away from fitting perfectly onto the song-based album that Eno fans have always wanted.
Emma-Jean Thackray - Ley Lines
From the horns to the choir, drums and the rest, ‘Ley Lines’ was entirely written, produced, laid down and mixed by Emma-Jean herself. One of the rising stars of the UK jazz scene, championed by Gilles Peterson, Theo Parrish and more.
Whyte Horses - The Best Of It (Casino Mix)
Manchester’s Whyte Horses effortlessly tapped into a 60s pop meets 70s grit funk realm with their single ‘The Best Of It’ featuring La Roux. Now the track gets punchy & addictive with the Casino mix.
