Double Entendre - Irene

Double Entendre - Irene EP

Hurricane Irene didn't destroy New York City when she rolled through at the end of August, but she did manage to keep most of us in or homes for a weekend. While that may seem like a drag to some of you, it turned out to be a good thing for EGS partner Ryan Daniels AKA Double Entendre. You see, Ryan's studio is set up in his apartment and he got right to work making and manipulating 5 second tape loops into full-bore songs. The resulting EP, aptly titled Irene, is a hypnotic slice of electro-acoustic magick. Hear it for yourself below, then head over to his bandcamp and buy it for a measly $2.

Beach Foam - Songs To Walk To

I got an email from someone named j g containing nothing but a link to this Soundcloud page. I thought the tunes were cool (and the subject of the email was 'music submission') so I figured I'd post them here. Songs To Walk To is comprised of eight short instrumental tunes that sound like they would indeed make a good headphone soundtrack for walking around in the heat. Dig it.
