MH-033 Nobody & Mystic Chords Of Memory - Broaden A New Sound  "Broaden A New Sound," the single from electronic psych-pop super trio Nobody & Mystic Chords Of Memory is from their forthcoming full-length, Tree Colored See. The radio friendly single edit of "Broaden A New Sound" is complimented with three interpretations of additional songs from the full length. Devendra Banhart's "La Semilla" is a spooky, Spanish-spoken echoed acoustic cover of the Tree Colored See opener, "The Seed." DNTEL contributes a slow building pulse-driven remix of "Feet Upon Sand," which focuses attention on the female vocals of Jen Cohen during the chorus. The Long Lost round out the project with an achingly sweet and simple folk cover of "Coyote's Song (When You Hear It Too)." This teaser single stands on its own, presenting a multitude of sounds from some of the finest in the electronic/folk spectrum. |

| Nobody (Elvin Estela), who dropped superb hip-hop psychedelia on last year's And Everything Else, with Mystic Chords of Memory (Chris Gunst and Jen Cohen) pair for two almost unbelievably pretty songs. Conjuring the sunniest of West Coast vibes, “Broaden A New Sound” breezily floats honey-dew singing over a lightly swaying Rhodes-kissed base. Acoustic guitars pluck as delicately as harps while vocals dreamily whisper and beats tangentially reference hip-hop. Recalling The Beach Boys at their Surf's Up best, the slower “Memory” works the lonely wail of a harmonica into its hypnotic voice and piano lines (love the tremolo guitar and chimes too). Let's hope their upcoming full-length Tree Colored See makes good on the promise of this single. - Textura |
