I must admit I’m not the biggest fan of the latest Vampire Weekend record but I was drawn to ‘Step’, musically it reminded me of something Mark Mothersbaugh would compose for a Wes Anderson film.

We’re pretty sure come this time next year a lot of people are going to be including Skaters debut ‘Manhattan’ in their end of year top 10 lists for 2014. We’ve really enjoyed the first tastes off it and have waxed lyrical about them numerous times on this here blog.

Over the last few months we’ve been enjoying Danny Brown’s new album “Old” and we’re happy to see jjj giving it some time.

We’ve talked about Danny quite a bit on Cool Accidents so it was sweet to see him do good.

But one thing about the new stuff is that its bright production wise and very lively. Sort of in the synth bubble! P-O-P.

After listening to the new Danny Brown record the good people over at The Fader played the numbers game and broke the album down into basic digits, turning it into the info-graphic above.

We haven’t had a chance to digest the whole album yet ourselves but if the first single ‘Dip’ is anything to go by, it’ll be well worth a listen. Banger alert!
