If I were a DJ, this would be the point where I would say in my low baritone “lets take it down a little bit, grab that honey that makes your loins burn and pull ‘er close for this one” and at that point I would put on a song from Magic Wands and everyone would exhale with fruition. Enough with my fantasies and on to the fantastical Magic Wands with their down-tempo songs, similar to the xx but with much more psychedelic tones. Speaking of the xx, it seems I have gotten my hands on an amazing remix they did for the aforementioned Magic Wands. Check out the songs and the band on their radical US tour supporting the noise-artists School Of Seven Bells (though no Dallas date as of yet).

These guys have a pretty decent EP, but when I saw them at the Granada a few months back it was one of the most boring performances I’ve ever seen. When they came on stage they asked for the stage lights to be lowered and they asked for them to go lower still after each of the first 3 songs. They stood in place basically playing in the dark.
oooh I like.
