Nine Types of Light is as much an album as it is a movie by TV on the Radio. The movie is meant to be a visual re-imagining of the record, and includes a music video for every song on the album. The band personally asked their friends and the filmmakers they admired to help direct the music videos. Tunde Adebimpe, the director for the full Nine Types of Light movie, storybooked the music videos together with interviews from local New Yorkers on various topics, including dreams, love, fame and the future. Tunde also directed the music video for Forgotten. Nine Types of Light, both the album and the movie are set to release on April 12, 2011.
This is Grown Ocean, a track from Fleet Fox’s new album Helplessness Blues, being released on May 3.

The track below is Waited Patiently (ft. Lily Mackenzie) from FaltyDL’s newly released (from a day or two ago?) album You Stand Uncertain. I downloaded the album after reading Pitchfork’s (fairly accurate, in my opinion) review of it here http://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/15243-you-stand-uncertain/ and I’d definitely say in the next few weeks it’ll probably get enough plays on my itunes to justify the 10 dollars ten times over.
I actually had trouble deciding which track to post because they were all, if not phenomenal, highly playable. In the end it was a toss up between this gem and ‘Brazil’, which is funky awesome in its’ own right (a little more funky ;-) Check it out. : http://www.youtube.com/watchv=28FJbNbnvGE&feature=related
Bottom Line, I connect with this album, I connect with the sound, the form, the bipolarity and wonkiness of it all that you can physically feel in the skittering chords and melodic basslines that weave down through each other and then come up and out through you. Not to mention the nostalgically pure garage-iness of it all that when real DJs do it right gets you reminiscing about the first time you ever heard Dubstep.
Needless to say, I’ll be ‘patiently waiting’…. and listening … to see what he does next. I hope you will be too =)
