109. FADED PAPER FIGURES

Friday, May 28, 2010

one of my favorite things about working on a music blog is when we get a submission / recommendation that we follow through with and find some musical perfection. it's the best!

faded paper figures are a 3 person band based in LA that have a really interesting combination of sounds. they can be loosely put into the indie / electronica category. let me break it down for you: synth, 80s video games, lo-fi electro that you'd find on ed bangar, indie vocal harmonies / bells / guitars, occasional vocal samples like you'd find with the avalanches, and driving bass lines and percussion. they are hard to really lock down because their sound is really all over the place, but i can say that if you put them in a mix with starfucker and the whitest boy alive, you're making the right decisions in life. it's music you can dance to and listen to: our favorite combo.

their second album, new medium, just came out this past week. it's solid gold and a definite buy. for sure. grab it on itunes here. became a fan on facebook. i am!
