2:32 Additional info:| After years of recording in relative seclusion in the hills of Los Angeles, Ariel Pink (the first non-Animal Collective member on the Paw Tracks roster) makes his official Paw Tracks debut with 'The Doldrums'. Originally a handmade CD-R release a couple years back, 'The Doldrums' by Ariel Pink?s Haunted Grafitti was discovered by the Animal Collective during one of their west coast tours and became an immediate favorite. Recording at home with only a guitar, keyboard, and 8-track (the drum sounds are all unbelievably created with his vocals), Ariel Pink blends Lite FM and warped lo-fi pop into something beautiful and confusing, yet highly addictive. Review by Joshua Glazer Originally released as a CD-R, this acid-fried eight-track recording by this odd newcomer to Animal Collective's Paw Tracks label is one of the most wonderfully skewed takes on classic pop you're likely to hear. The Doldrums is the second album by American recording artist Ariel Pink, self-released in 2000. It is the first album credited to his solo music project, 'Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti', and the second installment in his Haunted Graffiti series.

Tape warp and vintage hiss and hum are the outerwear, but some serious '70s radio songcraft dwells underneath. This is the stuff Bowie heard in his dreams when not being terrorized by Satan living in his swimming pool. So dang it if we don't have a lo-fi revival on our hands. But this new batch seems bound and determined to drag listeners back with writing so catchy and sounds so warm that it's impossible to resist. Just pretend you're Steve Buscemi's character in Ghost World, and Maxell cassettes are the new 78-rpm records. Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti The Doldrums [Paw Tracks; 2004] Rating: 5.0 It seems as though Ariel Pink has beaten 'Weird Al' Yankovic to a 69 Love Songs parody. Instead of 'Asleep and Dreaming', Pink's debut album, The Doldrums, offers 'Among Dreams'; instead of 'Strange Eyes' we get 'Strange Fires'; instead of 'The Death of Ferdinand de Saussure' we get 'The Ballad of Bobby Pyn'; instead of 'Bitter Tears' we get 'Crying'-- there's a list and it goes on, and the musical side of this hilarious send-up is even more masterful. Maybe that claim is absolutely cuckoo. I mean, it has to be. There's no way this Hollywood hillbilly called Ariel Pink knows who Stephen Merritt is, and if asked, Pink would surely play Peter and deny the man three times. Either way, I've been trying for weeks now to figure out if Ariel Pink is a genius, an idiot, an idiot savant, or some combination of the three. Everybody's new favorite Collective-- Animal (not Nortec or Soul, though each group had its day)-- clearly seems to think highly of him. So much so, in fact, that Pink's crude and crooked pop affair is Paw Tracks' first non-Animal Collective release. That's quite a vote of confidence. Everybody's heard these songs before-- they sound straight out of 60s pop radio, 80s shampoo commercials, and 90s soap operas. The melodies themselves are great but worn from overexposure. Yet the songs are secondary to Ariel Pink himself, the oddball who understands these melodies in vastly different terms than the rest of us do and, consciously or not, is dead-set on resurrecting them. The Doldrums isn't a collection of songs so much as an excessive human spectacle-- violently personal and necessarily confrontational. Ultramagnetic mc s ego trippin. Wednesday December 03rd 2014, Filed under:,,,,, Written by: This is the ultimate rap addict dedication – the fantasy league lost Ultramagnetic album that we might have enjoyed if they’d released a follow-up to Critical Beatdown in 1990. Sure, it’s a collection of b-sides and vaulted tracks from between 1987 and 1990, but this sums up everything that makes Ultramagnetic MC’s the greatest rap crew of all time. Shout out to James aka BadNewz of 100X Posse for dropping that ‘MC Champion’ verse. All praise due to Ced-Gee, Kool Keith, Moe Love and TR Love – the best to ever do it.
