Musique de pluie avec une ferme intention de te prendre par la main, variable comme les saisons sans jamais être complètement sombre, comme si <i>Sonic seasonings</i> de Walter Wendy Carlos étaient interprété par <a href="http://weirdcanada.com/2011/07/new-canadiana-chad-vangaalen-diaper-island/">Chad VanGaalen</a> ou Avec pas d’casque avec quelques moments de fuzz 90s.

<b>From the small-town sweet epic of <a href="" target="_blank"><u>Benoit Poirier</u></a>:</b><br />
A comet that fled the big city (Montreal) to get away from its sorrow, Les Nitrates de Madame Mimieux (R.I.P. 2011-2011) landed in the small Eastern Townships’ village of <u><a href="http://maps.google.ca/maps?q=mont+sutton&#038;hl=en&#038;client=firefox-a&#038;ie=UTF-8&#038;mid=1317702574" target="_blank">Sutton</a></u>. Quietly, the band began to work on a first opus of slacker folk-pop, soaring with old synths as <u><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-iwHV6B3NXo" target="_blank">vast and textured as the region that welcomed them</a></u> and capable as much of towering, carried out moments as it is soft or worried ambience. This is lively music for a rainy day with a definite intention of taking you by the hand, changeable like the seasons while never getting completely dark, as if Walter Wendy Carlos’ <i>Sonic Seasonings</i> were played by <a href="http://weirdcanada.com/2011/07/new-canadiana-chad-vangaalen-diaper-island/">Chad VanGaalen</a>. Small-town sweet epic.

<div class="contentReview">
Once again, <a href="http://weirdcanada.com/2010/07/video-pink-noise-wild-love-dir-emily-pelstring/" target="_blank">Pink Noise</a> mastermind Mark Sauner sounds like a laid-back, drug dealing, cartoon street hustler leaning against a brick wall trying to sweet-talk you. Are you going to get inside his black Cadillac and go for a cruise? I warn you he&#8217;s headed for a <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4lW0F1sccqk" target="_blank">futuristic district</a>. The windows to this man&#8217;s soul may be tinted, but it&#8217;s a luxury ride to the finish line. This is mutant-making music. These anthems would provide the suitable soundtrack for a dystopian inner-city youth centre with a poisoned water supply. The Pink Noise is truly a national treasure and sorely under recognized for its achievements in the field of <u><a href="http://weirdcanada.com/?attachment_id=8325" target="_blank">sleaze</a></u>.</p>
<p>[Ed’s note: Yes, we already posted about this album in its <a href="http://weirdcanada.com/2009/12/review-the-pink-noise-gilded-flowers/" target="_blank">original format</a>. This is its fourth pressing and first on wax from the good folks at <a href="http://pleasencerecords.tumblr.com/" target="_blank">Pleasence</a>, and it sounds sleazier than ever…]

Slack-pop philosopher Matt Swann stays true to <a href="http://weirdcanada.com/2009/07/328/" target="_blank">his school</a>. On the full-length follow-up to last year’s sweet little split with fellow ramshackle charmers <a href="http://weirdcanada.com/2011/03/new-canadiana-lab-coast-extra-happy-ghost-lab-coast-extra-happy-ghost-2/" target="_blank">Lab Coast</a>, the Ghost with the most emerges from Plato’s basement with another resonant collection of melodic melancholia. Recorded and mixed with the deft touch of <a href="http://vimeo.com/26838680" target="_blank">Chad VanGaalen</a>, the swirl of overdriven anti-solos, vintage organ squelch and mesmeric harmonies from the golden pipes of <a href="http://lauraleif.bandcamp.com/" target="_blank">Laura Leif</a> shine brighter than ever. Timeless tunes for modern lovers.

Hypothetical damage and degenerate groove spring <i>Disco Prison</i> into an ultraverse of mutant Prince and <a href="http://waxidermy.com/konrad-evil/" target="_blank">casio-Konrad</a>. Heavy grippage.

D’une fin de journée passée de <a href="http://www.bandeapart.fm/" target="_blank">Benoit Poirier</a>:

<div class="contentReview">
Cocobeurre c’est le projet solo de la claviériste Coco Khan (la sœur de King Khan) qui a auparavant sué ce qu’elle savait faire dans les bands garage <a href="http://www.grunnenrocks.nl/bands/d/del-gatorsthe.htm" target="_blank">les Del-Gators</a> et <a href="http://www.alive-totalenergy.com/x/?page_id=922" target="_blank">les Milky Ways</a>. Nouvelle maman qui a appris à prendre son temps, elle s’entoure ici de synthés vintage et de collaborateurs confortables (King Khan et Choyce, entre autres) pour flotter sur ou se baigner dans une électro-pop faite de berceuses abstraites et de comptines ludiques qui évoquent des carrés de sable flous ou le souvenir d’une plage.  D’une inquiétude apaisante rappelant <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5NqF4HOx2YA" target="_blank">Passe-Partout</a> ou comme si Brian Eno avait destiné <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_PjOFX5CxBo" target="_blank">Another Green World</a> aux enfants, ces 10 chansonnettes maison vous font glisser dans la félicité de la fin d’une <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rqr7e0J2-vs" target="_blank">chaude journée d’été</a>.

<b>From the end of a past day of <a href="http://www.bandeapart.fm/" target="_blank">Benoit Poirier</a></b>:<br />
Cocobeurre is the solo project of keyboard player (and King Khan’s sister) Coco Khan, who previously sweated what she knew in garage acts <u><a href="http://www.grunnenrocks.nl/bands/d/del-gatorsthe.htm" target="_blank">The Del-Gators</a></u> and <u><a href="http://www.alive-totalenergy.com/x/?page_id=922" target="_blank">The Milky Ways</a></u>. Now a mom who learned to take it easy, Coco is surrounded with vintage synths and comfy collabs (King Khan and Choyce, among others) in order to float on or go swim. These abstract electro-pop lullabies and playful nursery rhymes evoke blurry sandboxes or the memory of a beach. Stuffed with soothing worry reminiscent of Quebec’s legendary kids show <u><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5NqF4HOx2YA" target="_blank">Passe-Partout</a></u> or an imagined past where Brian Eno had aimed <u><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_PjOFX5CxBo" target="_blank">Another Green World</a></u> at children, these 10 home-fi songs will make you slip into the felicity of a <u><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rqr7e0J2-vs" target="_blank">hot summer day’s end</a></u>.

From the 16mm mileage of <a href="http://web.choq.fm/artisansdubruit.html" target="_blank">Gabriel Jasmin</a>:
</div>
</div>
<div class="contentReview">
<i>Badlands</i> is quite a venture. From swaying croons to strenuous screams, we continue to follow Alex Zhang Hungtai’s solo foray into personal fiction. More mature than <a href="http://youtu.be/dkgG4vCYFTw" target="_blank">previous outings</a>, this LP contains his best songs yet, and reveals a more aggressive side to his traditional film noir chic. It’s a scratchy and loopy ride, <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jvqSCDeLY0o" target="_blank">revisiting the past</a> while staying firmly grounded in a singular breezy headspace of conceptual avant-garde. I’m so glad everyone seems to be enthused on just how good Dirty Beaches’ sounds are right now.

<p>
<b>Du kilométrage 16mm de <a href="http://web.choq.fm/artisansdubruit.html" target="_blank"><u>Gabriel Jasmin</u></a>:</b><br />
<i>Badlands</i> est une expédition. Par la romance chancelante susurrée et les cris astreignants, on continue de suivre Alex Zhang Hungtai jusqu’au creux de sa fiction personnelle. Plus mature que sur <u><a href="http://youtu.be/dkgG4vCYFTw" target="_blank">ses parutions passées</a></u>, on le trouve à son meilleur sur ce premier LP, en plus de lui découvrir une agressivité nouvelle à même son habituel chic de film noir. Égratigné et cyclique, le chemin <u><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jvqSCDeLY0o" target="_blank">revisite le passé</a></u> pour le juxtaposer habilement avec une vision conceptuelle singulière et avant-gardiste. Récent favori des critiques, je ne peux penser à un artiste qui le mérite davantage.

</div>
<div class="contentReview">
For us Canadians, spring comes with a peculiar feeling of delight, and this is precisely the kind of soundtrack you need when waking up from <a href="http://youtu.be/MuFQg1PuXS4" target="_blank">winter hibernation</a>. Lively yet relaxed, Pictures on the Wall is jam-packed with hooks, sunny vocal harmonies and smooth bedroom-fi fuzz. With 12 short songs packed into 19 minutes of tape, Lab Coast show excellent focus and economy in crafting fine laid-back pop. It’s springtime, life is good again, so stay in bed a little longer and then <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2CTPLUcQAjk" target="_blank">go ride your bike</a> or something.

<b>Du snooze matinal de <u><a href="http://web.choq.fm/artisansdubruit.html" target="_blank">Gabriel Jasmin</a></u>:</b><br />
Nous, habitants des grands froids, savons qu’un bonheur tout particulier accompagne l’arrivée du printemps, et cet album est précisément le genre dont on a besoin au moment de sortir de notre torpeur <u><a href="http://youtu.be/MuFQg1PuXS4" target="_blank">d’hibernation hivernale</a></u>. Énergique mais posé, Pictures on the Wall est une bonne dose de hooks, d’harmonies vocales ensoleillées et de la distortion digne des enregistrements de sous-sol. Avec 12 chansons en 19 minutes, l’excellente pop décontractée de Lab Coast s’y trouve concentrée et économe. On l’aime parce que c’est le printemps, parce que la vie est belle et parce qu’après une sieste prolongée, on ira faire <u><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2CTPLUcQAjk" target="_blank">une balade à vélo</a></u>.

<div class="contentReview">
There&#8217;s always been a certain charm to bedroom recordings. Both Lab Coast and Extra Happy Ghost!!! wear their affinity for this homespun aesthetic on their sleeves, and it&#8217;s this shared dedication to lo-fi home recording that makes them an ideal pair for this split from Calgary&#8217;s <a href="http://savedbyvinyl.com/" target="_blank">Saved by Vinyl</a>. Lab Coast tears a page straight out of the Guided by Voices handbook with a pair of sundrenched slacker-pop tunes, while Extra Happy Ghost!!! slows things on the flipside with a couple of decidedly more introspective tracks. But even when the songs begin to chill out, the fuzz and jangle remains strong in the mix, reminding us that this is the sound coming from the basements and bedrooms of our own land. <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Pollard" target="_blank">Robert Pollard</a> would be proud, and you know what? So should we.
