Collection of indie pop tracks, some electronica, some more experimental stuff. All artists are members of, or are connected to, the Rainbow Destroyer Collective of Pitzer College. All surprisingly good. Start with 3, 4, 16, 10, 6. FCC track 6, 1) Strums, some drums & interesting vocoder distortion. Short, 1:01. 2) Nice melody with noisy electronic blips and lotsa guitar feedback. 3)* Cohesive track - drum machine, electronics and guitar w/ male vocals. 4)* Pretty pop ambience. Elements of Trembling Blue Stars, the Cure. 5)Ecstatic midi pop – loud, fast. 6)* (FCC “fuck”) E-pop that sounds like Jesus and Mary Chain 7) Good rhythm & beat, but unfortunate sound quality. 8) Indie rock – Blah vocals & lyrics. 9) Pop - interesting hook punctuated by harsh keyboard noise, screams. 10) * Begins as noisy drone, moves into heavy distorted rock. Sampled, screwed rap vocals. 11) Catchy pop, same artist as #6. Watch for chipmunk backup vocals. 12) Heavy drums & guitar feedback – interesting short track 13) Pop rock – unmemorable 14) Electronica – fast-paced, sparkly – no vocals. 15) Drum’n bass beat, interesting piano melody overlaid – no vocals. 16) * Strong indie pop. Faint beginning, male vocals like Calvin Johnson. 17) Faint piano & male vocals. 18) Noisy, Art-audio-sculpture thing. Starts with sampled classical tune, moves into harsh screeching guitars & harmonica. Male vocals like Daniel Johnston. | ||
