The London Apartments – Signals & Cities Are Forever
This is an album I had no idea was even coming out. In fact I began seeing people mentioning that the new London Apartments album Signals & Cities Are Forever was freely available through the projects website and then it didn’t take long after that for me to jump all over this. It’s been awhile since I’ve been able to get a bit excited about anything in the good old fuzzy and dreamy realm. Not that this is really a full on blast of either, but it still manages to do the trick.
For those not familiar with London Apartments, it’s basically the project of Justin A. Langlois who has been putting together various singles under the moniker for a few years now. While definitely influenced by shoegaze and dream-pop bands of old, Langlois takes the sounds in a much more electronic direction. Sometimes this doesn’t always work for me, however Langlois has never disappointed me with his work as London Apartments and has proved himself time and time again that he can craft some truly beautiful tunes with this method. The vocals, especially here on Signals & Cities Are Forever, sort of remind me of the similar ultra breathy and high pitched vocals of Scott Cortez’s wonderful project Astrobrite.
The London Apartments – Satellites [MP3]
For anyone interested in the full album, it’s freely available through The London Apartments website in high quality mp3’s. I would definitely recommend giving it a go for fans of this type of deal. In the meantime, enjoy!
