Everything is Yellow: From the Collection of Teebs

Teebs, dropping new Soundcloud jams to thwart the doldrums of daylight savings time. We have long established that Teebs makes music so beautiful that it can only evoke visions of unicorns smoking blunts surrounded by naked nymphs and wind chimes. He has a new mini-album out on Brainfeeder next week, now with 25 percent more… Continue reading »

Everyone Alive Wants Answers

No one needs answers when the music speaks for itself. Teebs’s music speaks for itself. So does the fact that his Soundcloud page reps Chino Hills. Coupled with Abe Vigoda also claiming birthright, the pair are doing damage to the carefully tousled reputation that Ryan Atwood inculcated on the O.C. Snoop also once bragged about… Continue reading »

Teebs – Pretty Poly

Teebs’ castoffs are better than most producers’ finest efforts.  Released on the Brainfeeder beatmakers Tumblr, the origins of “Pretty Poly” trace to a mix that J Rocc did for Dublab. Flipping what is presumably a cover of the traditional folk song “Pretty Polly” (maybe the Incredible String band version?), Teebs submerges it into his breezy… Continue reading »

Brainfeeding on Benji B: Flying Lotus, Teebs, Samiyam, Et. Al Descend on Radio 1

Benji B’s out on vacation, leaving the house keys to the Brainfeeders, who drink his soy milk and smoke his finest weed — all in an attempt to topple J Rocc for best radio mix of the young year. It’s unclear who wins, but the Walking Dead throw their firing squad at the problem. Straight… Continue reading »

The Gospel of Matthews: Teeb’s Sunrise Library

Aaron Matthews has a library full of wind chimes and dimes. It’s fitting that Teebs named his debut after a synonym for love. At times. his music  can be indescribable without leaning on superlatives. At a superficial level, these are merely samples and loops, cut and pasted in a particular order. Yet on an ethereal… Continue reading »

Ada or Ardour

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H4aeNXdC_Eg The unofficial but Teebs-approved video for “Anchor Steam” puts a pixie-haired face on his interstellar synesthesia. The press kit one-liner comes courtesy of Flying Lotus who described his music as sounding the way Avatar looks. It’s a perfect description — one validated by  Google image searching, “Teebs Paintings.” Even in pixelated form, his abstract… Continue reading »

Tidal Waves and Teebs

DAEDELUS – TIDAL WAVES UPRISING from StrangeLoop on Vimeo. Due to time constraints, I’m combining Daedelus’s latest video with the latest MP3 to leak from Teebs’ forthcoming and excellent Ardour, which is this year’s Nosaj Thing’s Drift. I.E. the Low End Theory cross-over album that will cross-over inasmuch as you can when you’re an American… Continue reading »

Teebs-”Arthur’s Birds”

Thanks to hiring a one-legged, but highly capable Moldavian hacker to break into the Alpha Pup server, I was able to swipe the first leak from Teebs’ forthcoming Brainfeeder debut, Ardour. Those six of you who enjoy my use of mythological metaphors and beats to gems similes, should head over there.  It is a Monday.… Continue reading »

Mary Anne Hobbs — Volcano Refugee Party in L.A. ft. Daedelus, Ras G, Take, Teebs & Tokimonsta

Let the record show that this is the only volcano that I fuck with.  Eyjafjallajokull, Krakatoa, and Joe Vs. can get the finger — what finger? The middle. As the LA Weekly reported earlier this week, Mary Anne Hobbs has decamped to the city of the Angels for the next month, to duck the travel… Continue reading »
