THE COUCH SESSIONS PRESENT: THE DREAM SUITE F/ ANDREYA TRIANA

If you’ve been paying attention to our site, you’ll see I’ve been waxing poetic about British songstress Andreya Triana. Ever since I first heard “Lost Where I Belong” (Flying Lotus remix) I was captured. She’s also collaborated with  Bonobo and puts on an amazing live show. The Couch Sessions is right on time with The Dream Suite, which features remixes and  rarities  for your listening pleasure.  Also, her debut album is out now so check it out. Partake!

Pop the hood for the tracklisting!

MAIYA PRESENTS…ELECTRICITY VOL. 2

Hey hey! Since last month’s go round, summer has officially started and I’m feeling great. The weather is warmer, opportunities are blooming and we all have a lot to look forward to. I’m a city girl (NYC to exact) and for the first volume, I included songs with  good energy that reminded me of the pulse the metropolis exudes. This version is a little smoother, but somehow it puts me in the mindset of all the lights and the action. Making these is really abstract process, so it’s better to let you play it than explain it. Y’all know my formula by now. Enjoy. Everything you need is after the jump.

SB.TV A64 ANDREYA TRIANA

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this girl. I’ve been including the British singer’s music in some of my compilations lately. Her voice is incredibly soulful yet gentle, and the production by Bonobo is impeccable.  SB.TV filmed her performing a track  from her debut which will be out this summer. Shouts to Putmeonit for the video.

In case you didn’t catch it on my Rendezvous, download “Lost Where I Belong” Flying Lotus Remix [ZShare] and begin to fall in love as I have.

MAIYA PRESENTS…ORGANIZED CONFUSION

Hi Everyone. What can I say–it’s been quite a month. For starters, Blind I celebrated our first SXSW showcase (Check out the pictures here) and it was incredible to be in the presence of musical greatness.  It has been a whirlwind for me personally these past few weeks, dealing with moments of jubilation and euphoria to death, grief and setbacks. Music has been my window seat. This compilation was due Monday but I needed to gather my thoughts and get the sound right. It starts out mellow and soothing and ends a bit more chaotic–just how it’s sounded in my head. I hope you relate somehow. Tracks/link next door.
