Seapony / Sailing - SBL-73049

Well well well, if it isn’t the first new Seapony material to surface since their debut LP, Go With Me, was released earlier this year. “Sailing” is a subdued, earwormy number, featuring added acoustic guitar layers and delicate instrumentation. “I Saw You” is the more upbeat track, which is why we did the sensible thing and put it as the b-side. Take that, logic. Limited press on black vinyl.

Released: November 22, 2011

Dntel / Anywhere Anyone (Remixes) - SP972

In tandem with Sub Pop’s deluxe CD and double-LP reissue of Dntel’s landmark Life Is Full of Possibilities album, we proudly present a pair of brand spanking new remixes of “Anywhere Anyone” pressed with utmost care on a DJ-friendly, limited-edition 12" single. Remix work on one side is by Silent Servant & Regis of the Berlin techno collective Sandwell District—both techno veterans who also collaborate under the name Sandra Electronics. The flipside contains a remix by MIA/Radiohead collaborator Pearson Sound, aka dubstep producer Ramadanman, who has been hailed by such modern tastemakers as Pitchfork, FactMag and Little White Earbuds; the latter even named Pearson Sound the defining artist of 2010, which frankly we find more than a little bit impressive.

Up until the October 25th, 2011 release of the previously mentioned altogether deluxe reissue of Dntel’s Life is Full of Possibilities if you buy, from us, the vinyl LP format of this same deluxed-up Life is Full of Possibilities reissue, you will receive the “Anywhere Anyone (Remixes)” 12" described here on this page as A FREE GIFT!

Again, and more briefly…
Buy this on vinyl by October 25, 2011 and you will receive the “Anywhere Anyone (Remixes)” 12" for f-r-e-e.

Vetiver / Can't You Tell (Remixes) - SP984

The limited-edition “Can’t You Tell (Remix)” 12" contains two new remixes of the song “Can’t You Tell” from Vetiver’s mid-2011 full-length The Errant Charm on its a-side. The b-side has both an instrumental version of “Can’t You Tell” and the original album version.

Here’s Andy Cabic from Vetiver…
“’Can’t You Tell’ has a lot of ambience and mood, it’s a very summery track whose length is devised to end quickly enough that you’d want to press play again. These remixes present an opportunity to expand on the mood of the song and to extend the length and reveal a little more detail in the tracks and the spirit of the summer, just before it’s over.”

Released: October 11, 2011

Blouse / Shadow - SP939

Shadow is the new single from Blouse. B L O U S E is based out of a 6,000 square-foot warehouse on the north end of Portland, Oregon. The project started in the summer of 2010, after Los Angeles native Charlie Hilton met Patrick Adams in art school. They made a few home recordings and soon began spending nights at the warehouse recording with Jacob Portrait (Producer of Mint Chicks, Dandy Warhols, Starfucker). Having played music since their teens, the three found that there was something inexplicable in their coming together. Sub Pop Records will be releasing their ever so charming second single Shadow b/w Nights and Days on May 31st. Shadow is a song about death, disguised in a veil of Summer. These two tunes are instantly catchy and represent a great young band coming out of their warehouse exposing their new works to the world.

Willamette Week on Shadow:

“Shadow” is the type of song you want to hear during the big climactic scene of any coming-of-age drama: It has that big, sweeping-yet-wistful sound of all the ‘80s hits we remember from John Hughes’ movies, but it’s not just a caricature of New Order or Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark. The song is anchored by a really fantastic bassline and simple stucture, which lets the unknown female voice dance around the stop-and-start rhythm. Blouse’s “Shadow,” one of the best new songs I’ve heard all year."

Released: May 31, 2011

C.S. Yeah / In the Blink of an Eye - 4000387

C S Yeh was born in Taipei, Taiwan, repped Cincinnati for many many years and is now based in Brooklyn, New York. Musically, Yeh is monolithically active both as a solo artist and improviser as well as with Burning Star Core. He has made seemingly hundreds of recordings, and we’ve yet to find one rotten egg in the basket. Yeh has collaborated with an insanely varied list of people. If we were to actually drop these names, you’d be impressed / confused. But you have NOT heard the result of him writing songs, and for whatever reason the realization that he can do it and do it well is a shocker. So, aside from a 2002 EP documented by WHAT THE …?, this is yr first glimpse into the brightness of this aspect of his ever evolving talents.

Released: April 29, 2011

Niki & The Dove / The Fox - SP948

Niki & The Dove is a band from Stockholm, Sweden with two members, Malin Dahlström and Gustaf Karlöf. Since getting together in February 2010, Malin and Gustaf have been busy writing together, figuring out just how pop music works and then discovering new ways to break it. Their first single “DJ, Ease My Mind”/“Under the Bridges” caught the attention of everyone from Artrocker and NME through to The Sunday Times, who declared the single could “…be the two greatest alt-pop songs of 2010.” Newly signed to Sub Pop, this 12" single for “The Fox” is Niki & The Dove’s first release on the label. A full-length album will follow in late 2011 or early 2012.

Released: June 14, 2011

Ed Askew / Here We Are Together Again - 4000389

This is the last of the vintage, tipple era Askew, before the fingers cramped and began tickling digital ivory. These 2 wondrous cuts would’ve been included on the Little Eyes CD if time were not space. Wonderful live versions, of “Here We Are Together Again” and “Yellow Dollars”, taken from David Porter’s Show on WYBC, Nov 1969. These songs are the topical concern of that or any era (Love and War) and what else is there anyway?

Released: March 24, 2011
