The Liars - Scissor
As the initial vocal fragments come together, I was conned not surprisingly by The Liars into thinking that the fragments would form into Jeff Buckley's "Mojo Pin".
Beautiful verse.
These guys can also be as punk-ass as The Pixies as evident in the chorus.
The Liars - Proud Revolution
Think Yeah Yeah Yeahs + Radiohead
The Liars - Drop Dead
Middle Eastern riff courtesy of 2 sumptuous chords which bare themselves clearer in the brief final moments of the song.
Jaga Jazzist - Toccata
Cinematically good
Four Tet - Sing
Repetition never sounded so addictive for a long time
Vampire Weekend - Diplomat's Son
Here lies the most elaborate art-piece by VW to date.
It's playful, thoughtful and plentiful in terms of creative ideas and melodies.
"I can sleep wherever I lay my head on." rephrases a section of Grant Lee Buffalo's "All That I Have".
Ezra Koenig also reminds himself to seize the day ("If I wait, would I ever forgive myself?").
The mini instrumental part after the 2nd chorus is a celestial marriage between new (electronic music gadget) and old (beautiful worn out piano) sounds.
The mentioned part is a genius change of tempo.
This song can easily be featured in some scenes of Cidade de deus.
