Jesu/Sun Kil Moon - "The Greatest Conversation Ever in the History of the Universe"

Jesu and Sun Kil Moon's contribution to the 30 Days, 40 Songs campaign is a progressive synth piece that contains a bit of political and technological commentary, but mostly focuses on Mark's recent experience tributing Lou Reed. The song will presumably appear on the duo's sophomore record 30 Seconds to the Decline of Planet Earth, out June 1 via Caldo Verde.

Mogwai - "Remurdered"

Famed post-rock outfit Mogwai has been undergoing some pretty big changes on their last few albums, and it's lead to some hits and some misses. However, I've never known a band like Mogwai to fold under the pressure of critical reception, and the band's next album could make for a pretty controversial move for them considering how surprising this first track to drop from it is. "Remurdered" takes the same slow-burning approach one would expect from a Mogwai song, but the band's sound here is heavily reliant on synths! It's a pretty big change from the usual layers of guitars that tend to lead the way, but I'm not really finding this track any less interesting from a compositional standpoint, honestly.

This track comes from Mogwai's forthcoming album on Sub Pop Records titled Rave Tapes. The album is looking at a January 21st release! Enjoy!

Oneohtrix Point Never - R Plus Seven

Daniel Lopatin's latest full-length sees him stepping away from the extreme sampling that made 2011's Replica so thrilling. Instead, he rests on his passion for tightly sequenced synths, and there are some somewhat engaging results.
