This new Teebs remix makes me want to do yoga poses underwater while being attended to by a cove clustered with mermaids, while smoking a bowl of freshly plucked emeralds and eventually coming to repose on a bed stuffed with the hair of unicorns. In said chimerical dream, I will be serenaded by a harp… Continue reading »

The description for the new Teebs loosie goes: “random one for today. hanging with phil from the Crosby // Grilled Cheese Spot //” It goes without saying that any song inspired by proximity to a grilled cheese sandwich is something that I can wholeheartedly endorse. I also endorse the heavy drums and the brass horn… Continue reading »

Last year, quiet as kept, Teebs dropped The Cecilia Tapes, a 300-pressed CDR with hand-made artwork that he sold at live shows and the HVW8 gallery. There were rough unmastered sketches, but they still tapped into the elemental deciduous beauty of everything the Brainfeeder family artist has released. You should acquire it if you can.… Continue reading »
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 »
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’ 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 »
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 »

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 flair… Continue reading »
