Brooklyn’s Night Manager: a trifecta of musicians spanning from San Fransisco to Paris purveying lo-fi, buzzsaw’d gems. Along a similar vein as fellow BK noise-mongers Coasting or Total Slacker, the DIY sound becoming synonymous with the area flows to no end and is perfectly demonstrated in “Blackout Sex”. Rough and unpolished yet unabashedly honest.

Nothing makes a date more special than a NKOTB cassette tape and a t-shirt free of cheeto stains. Total Slackers‘ newest is an endearing tune about “a 14 yr old trying to date a 30 something yr old, community college teacher back home in the four corners somewhere”. “Magical Date Night” will see wax on Total Slackers’ first 7″ coming soon on Impose Magazine’s label (Impose Records, I guess?) and will be teamed with “Crystal Necklace” and “Video Store Rental Guy”.

Equally as cool as Marky Mark Donnie and the other Kid’z version, Total Slacker just covered the classic “Hangin’ Tough” (how about that Home Boy shirt?) at one of their live shows recently. Jokingly/Seriously recording a studio dub for yr home stereo, so feel free to break out in some sweet dance moves.

Our fourth episode will, not only, have some great new tracks up (from Beach House, Brilliant Colors, and Total Slacker) but we are also having a contest. Just use these easy to follow steps and we will send you a unique cassette tape of today’s show sans commentary, of course. We are also including a “one-of-a-kind” hand designed sleeve for the cassette. Cool, right? Well, whether you think so or not just email us at weeklytapedecktix@gmail.com with the artist name and title of the very last song in our rotation. First person to do so is the winner! Honestly, it’s not incredibly hard to name but contests are fun and so are mix-tapes so use yr ears. Tune in to Indie-Verse, listen, and get a cool cassette. ALSO! Don’t forget to catch Neko Case tonight at the Granada Theater. Tracklist after the jump.

After seeing the name of Brooklyn lazy psychers, Total Slacker completely lives up to it’s name. Unbelievably hazy garage pop and as Friendship Bracelet so eloquently put it, “one might assume they like skateboards, pizza, and weed”. Spot on, sir. Oh, and Alicia Silverstone is their drummer, which can only add to how awesome these dudes already are. Only a few tracks to go by so far and they’ve also got a few on their muxtape page.
