tUnE-yArDs perform a couple of stunning versions of “W H O K I L L” highlights live on Jimmy Kimmel.

Prussia’s music is as much tUnE-yArDs’ opposite as it is its equal. It’s downright sumptuous, drawing from a wealth of lush sounds and taking all sorts of unexpected twists and turns, but it’s also filled with vibrant energy and pseudo-childish whimsy.

TweetShare This post is a “QuickPick”.  QuickPicks are my attempt at getting all of the music that’s sent to me that I like (or just music I like but have no words for because it’s so awesome), out into the dubya dots. Any time I get sent music that I like I “star” it in [...]

TweetShare Without doubt, the album you’re about to hear below is one of the best of 2011 so far. I can’t stress enough just how mind-blowing it is.  If you’ve heard Merril Garbus‘ debut album “BiRd-BrAiNs” you’ll know what to expect, but if you haven’t then holy shit are you in for a treat/mind fuck/listening [...]

Not only did I launch Le Garage, but tUnE-yArDs let us revel in her genius, and now Dodos have graced us with their sinister and slow-motion tribute to Fight Club for “Black Night”, their first single from “No Color”. Before the end of the video where [...]

TweetShare You know, I could really live in a world where Merril Garbus was in charge. Every day would be sunny, there’d be a shit-ton of dancing involved, we could paint our faces as much as we wanted, and at school it’d pretty much go down just how you’re about to see in the video [...]

TweetShare Yeeeaaaahhhhya! Two new songs by the yards of tune in the space of 12 hours?  I’ll have some of that thank you very much. This afternoon the French site Le-Hiboo posted their footage of Merrill and one of her travelling companions playing new song “Doorstep” on the streets of Paris, and at one point [...]

TweetShare Recorded for Le-Hiboo, there’s not much more to say about this other than the fact that it’s gorgeous and the song is absolutely wonderful, I cannot wait for this album to come out. If you haven’t heard anything from the Merrill Garbus-led tUnE yArDs, you can hear the first single from her latest album [...]
