New Artist of the Week
On Tuesday I wrote the following about a newly-discovered Porcelain Raft track, “Put Me To Sleep”:
“In search for newly-released music in 2012, I came across this dreamy-pop project from Londoner, Mauro Remiddi. “Put Me To Sleep” pulls you into its hazy, ethereal world and keeps you there, hypnotized & waiting for more.”
Well, I got what I asked for after checking out a few more jams from this guy. It’s official. I’ve found my fave new artist of the week. Possibly month. Possibly [insert time period].

“If you were looking to fill that subtly melancholy indie rock hole that’s been vacant for so long, may we suggest Los Angeles duo Electric Guest. Sorry, make that ‘subtly melancholy indie rock that’s produced by hip-hop wunderkind Danger Mouse.’” -MTV discussing Electric Guest after having included them as one of the 12 artists to watch in 2012 amongst the likes of Lana Del Rey, A$AP Rocky, Frank Ocean, & Kendrick Lamar. Read the full article right here.
I may be a bit biased, given that 1 of the 2 members of Electric Guest is a friend. But I’m usually pretty objective in filtering the music I like &, regardless of this potential bias, I really think these guys are going to be huge. Lovely work, Asa. You can check out their tour schedule and listen to a couple tracks here.
