Chet Faker - Archangel

When someone steps up to cover a genre classic such as Burial's Archangel, they better be prepared to deliver. And by deliver I mean they beter be complementarily shipping via fedex overnight insured, bubble wrapped in gold. So when I saw Chet Faker covered one of my all time favorite songs red flags of worry were starting to go off. I hit play with hesitation and thought to myself, "great, some dude with a beard singing 4 lines over a piano." SHIT WAS I WRONG! This is a climactic, wrenching, genre-crossing cover.

Burial: Kindred EP

After having leaked this weekend, Hyperdub records makes a wise decision to put Burial's latest 3 song EP up streaming over at the Hyperdub website. Burial has always been a bit of a mysterious face in the battle against genre definition. Kindred EP is no departure from this pattern, in fact, it shows growth in multiple directions for the South London producer. Do yourself a favor and give a good listen, don't listen as background music, listen as if very important secrets were being whispered to you across a very long hallway. 'Ashtray Wasp' seems to be the favorite right now as it's like three songs in one and the end hits like a beautiful calm after a storm that's left the whole world in a terrible deluge. This is contending for release of the year already. LISTEN HERE!

Last week we got to hear "Four Walls," the a-side to a super limited single collaboration by Massive Attack and the prolific producer Burial. Today we get the b-side, "Paradise Circle" which is Burial remixing Massive Attack's "Paradise Circle." Both tracks are sprawling rainy day beauty long-listens.
