Soundcloud Picks: Holy Other, Morning High

Holy Other's With U EP was easily one of my favorite albums of 2011, and now just seconds ago I saw this pop up in my Soundcloud feed. (It's been posted for 4 days already, but... you get the point.) "Love Some1" sounds darker and thicker than older Holy Other tracks, but still has the emotive, spacious feel and re-pitched vocal slices they've come to be known for. I also give this track 5 math points for starting in 6/8 and transitioning to 4/4 for its last minute. If this track is any indication, their upcoming LP Held is going to be amazing.



Morning High is one of my followers/followees on Soundcloud and recently posted this gem with a free download while supplies last. Its fizzy, sweeping pads and light percussion snaps remind me of "Ruby" or "Would Know" by Mount Kimbie, but with vocal slices a la Lapalux or Holy Other. But most importantly, it's sexy.
