August 2013: When All Beauty is Silent

When All Beauty is Silent from letmeget on 8tracks Radio.

If You're Short on Time:
"Hunger" is not only one of my favorite tracks on the playlist, but it's also free! Follow the link below and you can download it from the SoundCloud page. "Body Music," the title track from AlunaGeorge's long-awaited debut, and "The Wire," HAIM's new single, are both great tracks from two groups that have been putting out consistently great music. The Bamboos cover of James Blake's "The Wilhelm Scream" is also surprisingly good. I was skeptical when I first saw it, but the funky, gospel-y take on Blake's bleak original is really great. "Mercy" is the first TVotR music since bassist Gerard Smith died and definitely worth a listen. Finally, "Until Your Father Sleeps" is a wonderfully sleepy track from Slow Machete, a project that samples Haitian choirs and gives some proceeds to "support education and agriculture programs in Cap Haiten."
