Coma Cinema and Teams/Forty Ounce Mix

Last night Coma Cinema was like "I've decided to release the new EP a couple of days early," and I mean I know it's early but in my opinion the new EP, Abandoned Lands, is pretty solid.  The songs come off as successful experiments, smart and vibrant and wild, with lots of blown out synth tricks and fucked up wry attitude.  It's actually pretty weird but its weirdness is a testament to its accomplishment, let's say.  Here's this song where you can kind of tell what I'm saying, with like a metronome of a crystalline beat and lyrics about Satan and it seems like the kind of song you could listen to on a summer night road trippin, so right on.

Then, too, a couple weeks ago, versatile kind of avant-electro guy Teams and those busy British entrepreneurs at Forty Ounce who yeah were in the previous post too--together they made a mixtape called the Teams Mixtape, I guess, that is in any case all I've wanted to listen to since I downloaded it.  I've been into mixes lately, and this one is one where I'm listening to it and I can't help but keep re-affirming to myself how cool I think it is.  There's some Pictureplane and Nguzunguzu and James Blake and Lil B so I mean--it's one of those that kind of makes you feel cooler just because you're listening to it and you have it and stuff.  So it's a hot commodity, right?, and it'll get you dancin.  And this summer why the fuck you wouldn't want to be dancin.

And if you haven't already, don't forget to pick up the Teams LP Dxys Xff, available at Bandcamp and AMDiscs.  That album is heavy, but bright you know?  Here, check it out:
