get fir-y

“Dntel is an obvious reference point from the mix of organic instruments and programmed swirls, but the seasick strings and sad little Rhodes piano lurking about hint at Sigur Rós. The dub-step-ish remix by Larvae on the B-side is even better, inverting the payoff to something noirish and hard-bitten. I’ve heard they’re playing out with two drummers, so the next time Firs is on the town, it should be a pretty noisy turn.” – August Brown, LA Times

Um, did the LA Times just drop some of our favorite sounds? Yeah, I think they did. We’ve flown the Firs flag in the past and there ain’t no stopping us now – so head on over to the Silverlake Lounge tomorrow to peep a native Angelino express his sounds which transcend an entrapment that Los Angeles maintains on its victims. Catch a sweet review and gain a similar and concise understanding over here.

And here’s one of the most chilled remixes of the year…yeah, Dntel was such an on-point reference.
