On the day they release their debut album, Fires in the Park, Benin City offer us this month's mixtape. With a mix that wanders from soul jazz and hip hop to electronica and many other genres, the vibrant London based trio show that their versatile sound, filled to the rim with rhymes, beats, horns and synths, takes root in their eclectic taste. Enjoy the ride!
Brooklyn based outfit Grizzly Bear are ready to release the follow up to their 2009’s acclaimed album Veckatimest. The yet-to-be-titled album will arrive on September 18th via Warp, and pre-order it now available.
To coincide with the upcoming new album, Grizzly Bear have scheduled a world tour starting late August. Check their website for more info and ticket links.
The first taste from the album is the opening track, ‘Sleeping Ute’, which refers to the Ute Mountains in Colorado. Enjoy.
