Dappled Cities – ‘Answer is Zero’
In music blogland, there’s a loose hierarchy of blogs somewhat determined by Hype Machine’s blog popularity list. The biggest one of the all Stereogum have leaked a track from Dappled Cities upcoming
Zounds album. I believe they are featuring it for one day only, so in case you missed it I’ve posted it up here. A few weeks ago Dappled and their team did an amazing launch show / exhibition in a storage warehouse, where they got 12 local artists to put up art installations inspired by each song on the album. It was a very original approach to reveal the album to the media and long time fans such as myself, definitely beats the art gallery with a gig approach.
Boudist has photos of this event.
