Very powerful track from Kyp Malone's (TV On The Radio) new band, Rain Machine. The instrumentation reminded me Kyp's production on Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson's self titled debut. I'm not sure how much of Kyp's influence was on that album, but I feel similarities. Similar to the xx track I posted last week, the instruments are sparse -- but that allows the production to relish each individual sound.
There's a difference between isolating each instrument clearly and relishing the way each instrument sounds as it is played. This track definitely favors the latter philosophy. I guess you could call it a "live" sound, but I don't think that's entirely accurate -- I think its just capturing the soul of the instrument. Not how the instruments sound in perfect studio isolation, and not how they sound as if on stage, and not so much lo-fi either; but how the instruments would sound if it were just a couple kids banging away with all their hearts as you walked by on the street.
The real strength of the song though is in Kyp's vocals. He bring so much authenticity to the table. I asked a lot of girls why they were so into Kings of Leon, and they pretty much all say that its because of the emotion in the lead singers voice. I guess in relation to whatever else people are hearing, Kings of Leon is pretty much the most amount of emotion you're going to hear on radio. But one listen to Kyp in this track and you immediately know, this isn't a song about losing some model girlfriend.
By the way, I just read that Miles Benjamin Anthony Robinson signed to Saddle Creek this month. This is the second time in the past couple months that Saddle Creek has signed one of my favorite artists. His new album comes out in Oct.
