Soundtrack To A Vacant Life

Not very long ago my buddy Anand told me about a great electronic band called The Flashbulb. Ever since getting a hold of a couple of their albums on iTunes, I’ve been hooked. The tracks on their albums are quite diverse from one to the next, and never cease to hold my attention. It’s great rythmic and deep electronic music, that gives off a calm and relaxing feel almost like Jazz. But it doesn’t sound like Jazz, so don’t get confused, and certainly give them a shot.
Why give them a shot? They released their latest album on BitTorrent, and you can download it for free. I am listening to it right now and am simply amazed. As Benn Jordan, the man behind The Flashbulb explains, this album is a lot more cinematic, melodic, and less electronic than his other albums. Definitely one of my favorite electronic groups. My fellow coder broheem out there will really appreciate this kind of music, it helps you get jammin’ pretty good and won’t distract you.
I put it on Box.net because the tracker is private. There is a nice html README that the album comes with, which surely deserves to be read. While you’re at it, check out the blog of The Flashbulb. You also might want to throw a donation their way.
check out m83…
Actually I think it was very long ago. But thats cool I’m downloading it right now.
You should check out Thievery Corporation and Four Tet, theyre like 2 of my fav bands right now.
PS: this is pretty sweet :)
