Fuck Buttons bro Ben decided to do his own shindig and Blanck Mass was formed. #epicsoundingambientstuff which makes a drive to the local store to pick up the milk seem like the most profound adventure ever. Sample full album here: http://blanckmass.bandcamp.com/

Ólafur Arnalds & Nils Frahm – a2 (Max Cooper Remix)
This is orgasm for the ears. … this remix of “a2” by labelmate Max Cooper transforms the duo’s original ambient piece into a starry-eyed house experience that fits seamlessly into a soulful, deep-felt dance floor dynamic. Swells of low end surge into a crisp, percussive breakdown that never seems to shift too abruptly, leaving Arnalds’ & Frahm’sContinue reading “Ólafur Arnalds & Nils Frahm – a2 (Max Cooper Remix)”
The Sight Below – Murmur
Man all this old Ghostly stuff is bloody gold. Can’t remember where I picked this track from, but if you’re a massive sucker for mellow droney stuff with quiet beats and have a nice pair of headphones, you will enjoy this. The guy behind this outfit has apparently done some more amazing stuff, but willContinue reading “The Sight Below – Murmur”
School of Seven Bells – show me love
Put together a milder Cocteau Twins with some of the shoegazing riffs of My Bloody Valentine… y’know… only if you’re into that shit… [audio:http://www.plasmoandtheinfinitesadness.com/wp-content/uploads/06-Show-Me-Love.mp3|titles=06 Show Me Love] School of Seven Bells – Show Me Love
The Field – Looping State of Mind
AKA Axel Willner. Where has this guy been my whole life? Definitely in my top list now; some of these tunes are simple and brilliant. Can’t decide between the first two tracks on this album, so including them both.

Washed Out – You’ll See It (Midland Remix)
Didn’t see this get mentioned in a lot of music blogs, but thought this remix really tops most Washed Out remixes. [audio:http://www.plasmoandtheinfinitesadness.com/wp-content/uploads/Youll-See-It-Midland-Re-Edit.mp3|titles=You’ll See It (Midland Re-Edit)] Washed Out-You’ll See It (Midland Re-Edit)
Total Control – See More Glass
Some nice droney stuff from a local outfit called Total Control. Nice for the late night Maccas drive. [audio:http://www.plasmoandtheinfinitesadness.com/wp-content/uploads/01-See-More-Glass.mp3|titles=01 See More Glass] See More Glass Find out more about them here at their bandcamp site.
Some tunes from Option Command
Not too sure what happened, but Broken Chip are now Option Command. I saw Broken Chip live a few years back and it was grand; guys with laptops, synthesizers and a cheap projector in a tiny room doing it ‘right’. This is some of their tunes. Funky. https://player.soundcloud.com/player.swf?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F20478321 Hidden Valleys by Option Command https://player.soundcloud.com/player.swf?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F10586621 PolybellContinue reading “Some tunes from Option Command”
Neon Indian – Ephemeral Artery (Darby Cicci of The Antlers – Fresh Breath Mix)
Been playing this on repeat for a while; sounds of an incomplete song that never quite gets right out there, but that’s the point (especially if you’ve heard the original one). Like an unfinished love story that ends anyway. Not everyone’s cup of tea but I like it. Find it in Neon Indian’s older album;Continue reading “Neon Indian – Ephemeral Artery (Darby Cicci of The Antlers – Fresh Breath Mix)”
Tycho – Hours
Seriously chill lad signed with the Ghostly broz. Also sells top notch prints. [audio:http://www.plasmoandtheinfinitesadness.com/wp-content/uploads/02-Hours.mp3|titles=Tycho – Hours] Tycho – Hours The day I can put thumbtacks on my walls, I’ll get meself one of these fellas:
