Featured Artist: Kyte

Kyte are from Leicestershire. Kyte should be listened to if you like Immanu El. I would play Kyte for girls. Kyte is like a kite, but with a y.

Planet [mp333] is probably one of the best opening tracks to an album I’ve heard.

Secular Ventures [mp333] is probably one of the best tracks that isn’t the opening track to an album that I’ve ever heard.

Other good things:
–

Boat Club: If you’re planning on taking a daytrip with a boat out into some nice calm open waters on a sunny day, you should definitely bring this album with you.
Always Away [mp333]

Andy McKee: I posted this dude here recently [1]. However, this song is too good to pass up. It’s a cover of Toto’s Africa. If you haven’t heard that song, look it up too, it’s good.
Africa [mp333]

Boris: Just raw straight up heavy distorted rock that makes you want to throw your air guitar around. Some people call it “Stoner Rock” but I don’t really like that term. I know some dudes who buy every edition of each album’s vinyl pressing. Hardcore.
Pink [mp333]

Take: Instrumental Down-Tempo Groovy Hip-Hop. The whole album is as good as this.
Monopoly Money [mp333]

Pyramids: I don’t like this band that much, but I’m sure someone will. They’re the newest band on Hydra Head records (Pelican, Isis, Neurosis, etc) and most of their songs aren’t this gentle. Weird, but kind of cool.
An Echo Of Something Lovely [mp333]

Slow Dancing Society: Probably the most romantic ambient music you’ll hear in a while. Candle-lit dinner, cuddling by the fireplace, car ride in the rain, etc. It’s beautiful.
The Time We’ve Spent [mp333]

iLiKETRAiNS: Dark-themed post-rock with burly man-vocals. If you like depressing tales of murder and death set to epic music as told by a lumberjack, you will like iLiKETRAiNS.
Spencer Perceval [mp333]

Check out some free stuff from the guys at Wise Owl Records. You can download full albums from them, and some titles are available for purchase. I host their downloads and have done album art for some of their bands. A bunch of cool dudes.
–

Toma: Gnarly-cool shoegaze-esque music. This song happens to be very slow, catchy and lovely.
Forever Flight Of The Friends [mp333]

Don, The Gun: Uppy and smooth synthy electronic stuff. Download if you are, in fact, a groovemeister. A solo project of one of the members of another band on this label, Petrograd in Transit.
Laminate [mp333]
