Dots and Loops


Stereolab is probably still one of the best bands around today. If you’ve never heard them, take all of the best elements from 50’s and 60’s pop, psychedelia, jazz, soul, lounge and funk and perfectly mix them into a single aesthetic and that’s Stereolab. While some of their output since Mary Hansen’s death hasn’t been as good as their prime material (Emperor Tomato, Ketchup, Dots and Loops, Cobra and Phases Group Play Voltage in the Milky Night), it is still better than 90% of the music currently being made. Posted is Brakhage off of Dots and Loops.

P.S. If you haven’t already seen it, check out this Britney Spears photoshop contest on Stereogum. I think my top three are the Blueman Group, Sloth, and Paul from Dave Letterman.
