Lisa Jaeggi has been a long-time reader of Knox Road, enjoying the artists we tend to spotlight. She finally sent us an email with her own music, and I don’t know what took her so long. I fell in love with her haunting voice and the simplistic sound immediately. So consider this a cry to… Continue reading Lisa Jaeggi

[MP3] MillionYoung: âCalrissianâ
MillionYoung, who is Florida’s Mike Diaz, will be playing at I Guess I’m Floating’s upcoming Floating Fest at CMJ and the blog has graciously shared his fantastic track “Calrissian.” The song has the sort of washed out, ambient vocals we’ve come to love in today’s indie scene, with rambling Discovery-esque synth and straight-up Christmas bells.… Continue reading [MP3] MillionYoung: âCalrissianâ
[MP3] Esperi: âDialledâ
An artist who plays bells with his feet. This is the type of music we’re after at Knox Road. But seriously, Esperi, aka Chris Lee-Marr, from Scotland, makes gorgeously intimate music. When I listen to “Dialled”, his newest song, I visualize a screen awash with sound waves. Touch the screen and an array of soothing… Continue reading [MP3] Esperi: âDialledâ
[MP3] Maur Due & Lichter remix Zero 7 and JosĂ© GonzĂĄlezâs âFuturesâ
Remember Maur Due & Lichter? The electroacoustic Austrian duo whom I fell in love with after listening to their debut album, Another Day. Well, they’re back with a bonus remix of Zero 7 and JosĂ© GonzĂĄlez’s tune “Futures” from The Garden. Maur Due & Lichter’s take on the song makes it an even glitchier Zero… Continue reading [MP3] Maur Due & Lichter remix Zero 7 and JosĂ© GonzĂĄlezâs âFuturesâ

[MP3] Scattered Trees: âFour Days Straightâ
Two Roll Call Records artists in a row (plus a mention on our Tumblr)! Must be some sort of…record. “Four Days Straight” was recently released as a single, with a b-side cover of John Lennon’s “Instant Karma”. Word on the street is that The Album Leaf is finishing up a little remix of it, which… Continue reading [MP3] Scattered Trees: âFour Days Straightâ
[MP3] Rubblebucket: âTriangular Daisiesâ
Everyone loves candy, Rubblebucket makes candy pop, and if a=b and b=c then everyone should love Rubblebucket. Rubblebucket, based out of Brooklyn (but formerly of Vermont), recently released “Triangular Daisies”, the title track off their new EP out October 19 on Roll Call Records, for free download. A smooth, jazz/pop fusion of a song, “Triangular… Continue reading [MP3] Rubblebucket: âTriangular Daisiesâ
[MP3] Hands: âOnward Upwardâ
Oh man. It’s that time again. The Hands crew has dropped another bomb on us, this time with new song “Onward Upward”. They’re hard at work on a new album and the track is a taste of an even fuller, complex Hands sound. The song has the typical elements of Hands music, with layered instruments,… Continue reading [MP3] Hands: âOnward Upwardâ
Sacred Animals releases debut EP, Welcome Home
After Abby’s little love note to Radical Face (aka Ben Cooper) and his latest (brilliant) EP, Touch The Sky, I found it appropriate to post about Sacred Animals’ debut EP, Welcome Home, which was released October 1. Cooper had a special version of his own “Welcome Home” track on Touch The Sky, so I’m hitting… Continue reading Sacred Animals releases debut EP, Welcome Home
[MP3] Lelia Broussard: âSatelliteâ
A while back (almost a year ago) I wrote about I HEART Inc’s second annual Bombshell Alliance, in which a compilation featuring rising singer/songwriters accompanied the event. Well, if there is to be a third annual Alliance, it won’t happen until mid-November, but the singer/songwriter I profiled as part of the event last year was… Continue reading [MP3] Lelia Broussard: âSatelliteâ
