Memoryhouse: The kids were wrong (Single, 2012)

"Having already dropped multiple singles, an EP, a bunch of remixes (and remixed-by’s), videos, and signed to Sub Pop, Memoryhouse are now at that tipping point of releasing their debut album.
“The Slideshow Effect” drops on February 28th and today you can get a wee taste of the first cut from the album, “The Kids Were Wrong”, low-fi and dreamy like the songs we’ve heard before in
“Heirloom” and “Quiet America”. Listen to it below and let us know what you think in the comments" (Yeah: listenbeforeyoubuy.net)

Jackson Browne: These days - 3 Covers

“These Days” is a remarkable song. Jackson Browne originally wrote the song when he was only 16 years old and submitted a demo of the track to various artists and publishing companies. The first recording of it occurred a few years later featuring vocals by Nico and finger-picked electric guitar provided by Browne himself. Later, when he became a recording artist of his own notoriety, Browne recorded a new version of the track with his own vocals and production assistance from Gregg Allman of the Allman Brothers (who subsequently recorded his own version of the song). It’s an often covered track to be sure, and here we collect three “indie” covers of the tune performed by Mates of State, Memoryhouse and St. Vincent (I’ve found others by Elliott Smith and Clem Snide). I think it speaks to the beauty and elegance of the original that each of these artists’ stay relatively true to the flesh and blood of the original.(turntablekitchen.com)

Memoryhouse: Quiet America (Single, 2011)

"Having signed to Sub Pop, Memoryhouse are getting ready to re-issue their EP “The Years” in September and as an incentive to buy it it’ll include two new songs.
The first of which, “Quiet America” can be downloaded for free below with accompanying video edited by unofficial third member Jamie Harley. It’s everything you’ve come to expect from Memoryhouse; Lush vocals, wispy cloud-like atmospherics, drenched in reverb and rays of the sun. Check out the video and the track below, and if you wanna get your hands on the re-issue
it’ll happen right here" (Vía: listenbeforeyoubuy.net)
