Young Magic Melt LP Stream
Of course Melt is the only thing I have been listening to since the album stream premiered yesterday on Hype Machine. I have posted about Young Magic so many times GITNB is starting to feel like a goddamn tween’s Tiger Beat-esque fan site more than an indie music blog. Fuck it. Support the music you love. At this point, it’s fair to say, I’m not the only one falling for this trio’s enchantment.
Carpark finally gives us more details as to what the band’s album will be like describing it as, “Heavily informed by West African rhythms, Brainfeeder hip-hop, UK bass, and 60s psychedelic soul. Young Magic’s full-length debut, Melt, expands on their varied aesthetic, at once electronically sequenced and completely organic. Containing recordings from ten different countries, the album flaunts new facets at each turn.”
So pumped for this release. Read my previous posts on Young Magic here, here and here.
After about 15 listens, stand out tracks are Night in the Ocean, Sparkly, Driving Down The Mountain, You With Air, with Slip Time, Sanctuary and Jam Karet taking the top spots, but really, the entire album is a mystified wonderment of darkness-striken delight. Think I dig? Just a little…
Young Magic’s debut album, Melt, drops on Valentines Day via Carpark and comes complete with a silver half moon pendant. Pre-order HERE.
