2010 / New Music
2010 is starting off strong, musically.
I’m really loving the new Beach House record Teen Dream.
And I just got the new Midlake album The Courage of Others which is also really great.

Some other 2010 releases I’m anticipating: Liars, Panda Bear, No Age, Sleigh Bells and LCD Soundsystem.
Stereogum has compiled a list of new releases HERE.

Quality. I’ll have to look further into Midlake and its disgustingly rad modernized-60′s vibe. Already diggin’ on the Beach House.
Great “heads up” list, thanks.
Definitely excited for everything listed above, as well as new records from:
Joanna Newsom
The Books
Tallest Man on Earth
and a couple others that have slipped my mind right now. 2010 is going to kick musical ass in a big, bad way.
Matthew and the Arrogant Sea
OK SWEETHEART (Midlake’s drummer Mckenzie Smith co-produced)
Via Audio (Jim Eno produced)
