BLAKROC Blakroc LP / CD
*** Wikipedia sez: "Blakroc is an upcoming rap rock collaboration album by Ohio-based blues rock band The Black Keys and several hip hop and R&B artists."

BRACKLES Rawkus 12"
*** two adventurous, Day-Glo tracks shamelessly built to drive people mad on the dancefloor. This new single recalls the eclectic nature of Brackles' DJ sets and his love of two-step garage.

BURNKANE You Know 12"
*** "Burnkane is a recent Planet Mu signing and a new artist morphing the dubstep template beyond recognition. Burnkane treats a typical pop format it until it's dubbed out into something strange and narcotic."

NEKO CASE Blacklisted LP
*** BACK IN STOCK!

FALTY DL Bravery 2xLP / CD
*** "An impressive combination of melodic synths, glitzy garage samples, and complex programmed beats and effects. Plaintive synths, hiccupped vocals, big bass, jazzy chords, chicken-scratch guitar, dubbed-out vocals and sassy disco."

MICHAEL HURLEY Ida Con Snock LP / CD
*** "A new album of recordings sung and played by one of the last remaining ramblin' American folk troubadours, backed by IDA, recorded at Levon Helms' studio in Woodstock, NY. Seven originals and five loving covers of '50s rock 'n' roll, C&W, and vintage folk."

NITE JEWEL Want You Back 12"
*** "NITE JEWEL is a remarkable combination of revisionist Bronx pop and hazy musical impressionism." Deep bass, 1980s-style synth jams, warped ala ARIEL PINK.
