Nouvelle musique. Panamericana

Federico Aubele - Panamericana



I have not spent much time listening to Latin lounge music...but maybe I should. Now don't let that term "lounge" turn you off...its really just a very good pop album (with some electronic/tango/dub/reggae elements). And if any of those damned 'hipster' music critic-sites get behind this album (as they should), it could be a surprise hit. It's slowly becoming my new favorite album of the year.

Nouvelle musique. Level Live Wires

Odd Nosdam - Level Live Wires (2007)

A beautiful album that will be released in a few weeks (August 28). Like all of the best electronic/ambient -or whatever this is/can be considered- it took a while to grow on me…but once it hit me, it really hit. He often gets compared with Boards of Canada, but the aurora, dream-like, sounds remind me more of (a toned down) Dan Snaith (Manitoba/Caribou) than anyone else. Best album I've heard all year. Oh...and his previous album Burner is worth the $15 as well.
