89. MORE MITTEN

i can't begin to explain how good brooklyn duo mitten is. they're still working on their debut ep, and it looks like their working realll hard. if you liked their other two tracks, "cavalcade" and "green" you will FOR SURE like "similar sense." it proves their versatility even more: it's up-tempo, the vocals are playful and gently bounce us around, the lyrics are meaningful for anyone who lives in this city, the melodic build takes you for a positive ride to the chorus and the percussion is interesting and innovative using more indie approaches with electronic influences that might make you think of aphex twin. i could keep going on and on! some other good news is that mitten is working on their live show - i can't wait for this - it's going to be glorious. the bad news is that this will probably be their last free track before they release their ep.

thanks to twitter, mitten reached out to me, i checked out their music and fuckin LOVED it. it's outside of my usual aesthetic on here, but it's ok because they are QUALITY. mitten is from brooklyn (represent) and is just starting up. they've been together for about a year and are finally getting the ball rolling on an EP. below are the first two tracks they've recorded. they are both short and SWEET.

this is a band to follow if you like simple electronic sounds mixed with an indie feel / beautiful sweeping progressions and complicated percussion. their sound is relaxed, earnest and oh man, it makes you feel really good.
