Here’s some laid back, samplistic (I made up a word, deal with it), jazzy, mind melting and sultry weirdness for your wednesday. Amon Tobin, you are a freak but you’re awesome. His new album is out this year and it sounds super heavy and dark so if you feel like going into another dimension of jagged, rocky soundscape go check it out.
Today’s weekly weirdness comes from an artist that never fails to confuse, amaze and disgust me at the same time. Sufjan Stevens gives no fucks about what you like in music. He just writes or performs whatever he wants. Today’s song is one of his many diamonds in his rough collection of artistry. Be prepared for many uncomfortable and challenging approaches to music if you get this guy’s discography.
Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you a cover of much higher standards than the original song (sorry Joni fans). Turn it up and shut the fuck up because this song is dynamic, well performed and beautifully arranged.
