Trigger warning - this is very indie and not for everyone

Watch on YouTube

I am addicted to this song. The singer, Lindsey Jordan, is 17 years old and is already being tutored by some indie icons (Liz Phair, Fiona Apple); the lyrics and style are raw and full of emotion. The guitar rifts remind me of Silversun Pickups, and further back of Sonic Youth (also an influence of Silversun).

It's so good. I think it's endearing beyond standard deep indie. I think there is appeal here that takes them into hi-fi - hope they don't lose their touch in the process.

Love the Kurt Vile. He’s the bees knees.

Him and War on Drugs are a-okay in my book.

Speaking of Kurt Vile, good article today about him in the NYT:

I think I like Heat Wave better.

Carter V was worth the wait. It sounds immaculate.

Absolute great year in jazz and largely because of youngsters. Kamasi Washington is the name with most resonance nowadays, but unlike in past years, his running buddies have put out fantastic records. Trombonist Ryan Porter came with a front-to-back burner, highlighted by a terrific interpolation of not-joking "Night Court Theme" (Harry P Stone, rest in peace!) and keyboardist Brandon Coleman dropped his debut on Fly Lo's Brainfeeder imprint last week. Real heavy on George Duke-isms and pre-Rockit, post-Chameleon Herbie Hancock. In general, LA has really been percolating.

Big sounds coming out of London, courtesy of Joe Armon-Jones and Henry Wu's Kamaal Williams project. K-Dub is very heavily mining the astral-minded deep soul inspired by the likes of Lonnie Liston Smith and any of the underheard heroes on hot-tipped indie labels from the 70s like Strata East and Tribe, but there's very much an IDM influence to production. Armon-Jones is one of many that has broken out due to Gilles Peterson's efforts on the Brownswood label. Unlike some of the stuff off Brownswood, these are more firmly jazz than, for a lack of better term, what used to be referred to as acid jazz.

For my money, the most compelling of all has been coming out of Chicago's International Anthem conglomerate. Drummer Makaya McCraven is easily the one most tabbed to join Kamasi beyond the insular community of jazz listeners. His "Highly Rare" live date is stunning and features him remixing and tweaking a club show. It's hard to tell where the performance starts and the remixing enters and I can't think of an effort that more seamlessly merges hip-hop with jazz. Anybody who checks out Flying Lotus is well advised to bend their ears this direction. McCraven has a new record coming out on October 25 and I am juiced. Will feature collaborations with some of the Londers mentioned previously, as well as arranging genius Miguel Atwood-Ferguson. McCraven pals around with and has featured guys like Tortoise's Jeff Parker - who put out his own fantastic record on International Anthem a couple years ago - and has provided a way out of the neo-conservative morass that has long plagued jazz.

the most iconic horror movie theme of all time.

I am mad I didn't go to the Blazers opener. Could have watched Lebron ball it out.

Nah you really aren’t. Believe me, I tried. Tickets were absurdly priced.

Cross thread contamination, but you cats made me think of this (which has nothing really to do with people moving to Portland in general). Anyways, good song- dude is a talented storyteller.

I totally forgot about this post though I meant to go seek this song out. I just stumbled across the song today and remembered I meant to listen to it. I don't like it as much as Pristine, but do really like it. Need to listen to their full album now.

Jawbreaker in Milwaukee this past weekend was pretty cool if you're into EDM. They got some big names and it was well run and organized for a first year event. I was very very impressed, definitely hope they repeat next year. I'm guessing it did well since they added an additional head liner, Griz, at the end. It had the "warehouse rave" vibe which you can't find around here very easily.

Definitely marketed towards college kids, but there was plenty of 20-30 from around WI and Chicago there.

Big fan of this album and Lindsey. "Let's Find An Out" and "Full Control" (and Heat Wave) are a couple other standouts for me. Let's Find An Out has a Kurt Vile vibe.

If you get into the album you should check out this solo performance a few months before the album came out. She plays a bunch of material from the new album and also her EP Habit. Just her and a guitar.

Pristine starts at 40:00

The Blue Stones album came out last week and I'd recommend it to anyone who enjoys blues rock.
