Forss is back!
Eight (!) years ago his debut Soulhack blew me away. Music from another planet. Now he is back – on June 12th Forss will release his second Studio Album ‘Ecclesia’. Here are the first two promising previews!
Sunday Evening Filter (In The) House
Ever wondered how guys like Bibio spend their weekends?
“Sequencing the SP1200 via MIDI and jamming on the mixing desk. Great fun. All the samples & beat are coming from the SP. FX: Akai MFC42 analogue filter, Boss DD7 delay and Moog phaser.”
You Get High
More and more output on Pretty Lights Music …
Just a few weeks after ‘We Must Go On‘ here comes ‘You Get High‘ – another new track for free …
Derek Vincent Smith himself describes it as “a new style hip-hop jam that incorporates what I think sounds like a slow-mo disco stomp. It’s soulful and funky at the same time and it’s all about the high you feel when listening to good music.This will be the last sample-collage produced track I drop before my new album (made completely from self-made vinyl) comes out!”
The promo video really looks like Pretty Lights live shows are pretty energetic by the way:
And there are even more news as PLM has just announced to release Eliot Lipp‘s forthcoming album ‘Shark Wolf Rabbit Snake’ on May 22.
A first track called ‘The Sunset‘ is just a click away and some older material just waits to be played on Soundcloud:

Remember Vampire Weekend?
The band’s bassist Chris Baio will release a solo EP under his sur- and DJ name ‘Baio’ on May 21.
The track ‘Tanto’ features Matias Aguayo and turns out to be a very nice and surprisingly electronic summer track …
If you want to extend the summer feeling – don’t waste no time and get his ‘Field Day & Underage Mix’ from last year:

Woodkid’s new EP ‘Run Boy Run’ is going be released on May 21st.
Cover and teaser definitely look awesome already …
All of you who can’t wait might listen to his latest remix of Portugal. The Man‘s track ‘So American’.
Or – coming to his other great quality as an outstanding director with a unique sense for breathtaking visuals – have a look at the beautiful black and white video he recently directed for Lana Del Ray:
R.I.P.
… is the title of British producer Actress‘s third LP, which has recently been claimed as “one of the best albums yet unveiled in 2012″ on XLR8R.
If you like his music — go get this remix he did of John Cale’s track ‘Perfection’:
