Today’s Untz: A Walk (Kolombo Remix) / Tycho
We’ve featured or talked about Tycho a bunch over here and for good reason. His music is ethereal and awe inspiring. We both get the chance to see him for the 3rd time next weekend at Treasure Island Festival just outside San Francisco. Here’s to hoping he gets the sunset time slot.
On this remix his spacey ambient sound is giving some rolling bass that gives the track a new feeling while still retaining the main melody. It’s beautiful. #untz/tom
A home themed track to go with the holiday weekend alongside your pumpkin pie. Happy Thanksgiving!
Today’s Emo: Home / Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros
‘hot and heavy pumpkin pie / chocolate candy Jesus Christ / ain’t nothing please me more than you’
I am lucky to have a concept of home that makes me all warm and fuzzy inside, returning for the holidays to the house I grew up in with a family that has picnics under the Christmas tree every Christmas Eve and that lies down on the kitchen floor between Thanksgiving dinner and dessert in order to burp to make more room for the final course.
Edward Sharpe’s version of Home translates this feeling into a love, and I totally dig it… ultimately it is people and not places that cause this sense of comfort. And people can be anywhere. #emo
Today’s Untz: Little Man / Little Dragon (Tycho remix)
‘something missing in your smile / something missing in your soul’
A chill, minimal take on Little Dragon’s Little Man by one of San Francisco’s own. Tycho, aka Scott Hansen, is playing the Independent on December 10th, and if I survive Santa Con that day I will be sure to check him out-ambient beats could serve as the perfect antidote to a morning of mayhem running around Polk Street in a full santa suit. Although maybe I should wear it to the show. #untz
