New Music From The Inbox: Danny Malone, DIGITS, Lou Pomanti, Mother Falcon, & Gauntlet Hair
Artist: Danny Malone “Spiderlegs”
Album: Balloons
There’s a strangeness about Danny Malone that is really enticing, plus I love a video that gets close enough to see the texture of somebody’s skin twisting.
Sounds like: Decent to madness

Artist: DIGITS “Street Violence”
Album: In The City of The Dead
DIGITS have a breathless electronic sound that builds, flourishes, and then evaporates.
Sounds like: synth-pop with soul.

Artist: Lou Pomanti “The Big Smoke”
Album: Welcome to the Boogaloo Lounge
This ones good for the soul – a tribute to the soul, funk and r&b that permeated the city of Toronto in the late 60’s and 70’s.
Sounds like: Funky.

Artist: Mother Falcon “Pink Stallion”
Album: You Knew
This one’s going to get under your skin and crawl – Mather Falcon is an orchestral indie-pop band that boasts a rotating line up of 15-20 different musicians with serious musical chops. These guys rise and fall like nobody’s business.
Sounds like: Curious.

Artist: Gauntlet Hair “Human Nature”
Album: Stills
Gauntlet Hair rides this line between shadowy industrial rock awash in new wave, and pulsing synth-pop.
Sounds like: industrial-electro
Link/Listen/Watch:
That Gauntlet Hair track was really good. "Electro-industrial" is a really strange label for it. It's very reminiscent of JAMC to me, with a touch of New Order-like guitar and synths.
