It’s official! New Jersey native Ducktails has made this summer’s soundtrack. This might be the culmination of a point in time in music history, of the so-called “lo-fi tropical psych-drone” sound.

The gentle breeze and the shining sun is signalling once again that we have conquered the winter -hopefully- and Italian singer songwriter Giorgio Tuma’s sophomore album “My Vocalese Fun Fair” – although released in January – is the perfect soundtrack to spring and the lazy, love filled days it provides.

Two years after we reviewed Gangpol & Mit’s “The Hopelessly Sad Story of the Hideous end of the World“, we have their new project “Carton Park” in our hands. Working together with Ponpoko Records bosses Mami Chan and Norman Bambi this one is “especially intended for kiddies”.

Crystal Antlers’ Tentacles on Touch and Go is amazing. True, their name has hipsterism written all over and how many more “Crystal somethings” we can tolerate might be hot topic, but if you are into the new jangly, noisy, power pop/punk school coming frmo NY and LA, like No Age, Wavves, Vivian Girls, Cause-Co Motion et al, Crystal Antlers’ Tentacles is a must have from 2009.

Astronauts of Antiquity’s Rocket Science for Dummies is a solid downtempo/pop/jazz album with inspired songwriting, mellow vibes and good musicianship. Think of Morcheeba’s first 2-3 albums or Zero 7’s debut, Lamb or Thievery Corporation and you’ll be prepared for what the Astronauts are gonna bring to the table.

Never bought the Hot Chip hype till today, but this remix of a track by two masters, Soft Machine’s Robert Wyatt and well known French composer Bertrand Burgalat has dropped our hypeguard.

It’s been a long time since we last heard of Final Fantasy’s Owen Pallett. The eloquent singer-songwriter has a new ep called Spectrum, 14th Century on Blocks Recording Club, a Toronto artist-collective label. You’ll be quite happy to know that he can still craft good offkilter pop songs.
