ILNL's tracks of 2013 :: Part 2

Following on from the first batch last week, here's the second and final instalment of my tracks of 2013. Every single track on this list contributed towards making this year the best one yet, see you in 2014 everybody:

Max Cooper

Producer Max Cooper has been collaborating with Braids (a personal favourite of mine) on his latest track. Titled Pleasures, it's an amalgam of intricate production and drawn out vocals, it's music that literally pulsates as if it had a life of its own.  Below is the stunning official video; created by Belgian animator Cédric de Smedt:

BRAIDS//Purity Ring

I woke up to a nice track my BRAIDS this morning. This is part of a split 7" with Purity Ring, who're releasing the already posted 'Belispeak' as their contribution to the record.

BRAIDS are releasing a track called 'Peach Wedding'. Like most of their previous tracks, this one has an interesting sound - disjointed but pretty. A completely different sound to Purity Ring, it'll be interesting to see how they compliment one another on vinyl. Click on the link below to listen to the track.

Braids - Peach Wedding

The joint venture is out later this Autumn on 7", and the digital releases of each track are already available. In the mean time, stream here & have a listen to a personal favourite of mine by each artist.
