DOWNLOAD: James Yuill - No Surprise

Posted 4/3/2009 1:36 PM by Faith-Ann Young

Tags: electronica, folk, folktronica

James Yuill meticulously weaves traditional acoustic music with electronica (or vice versa) without it sounding like there's a conspicuous backing track or like either form overpowers one another. The English gent often harnesses together pop-centric, atmospheric beats - reminiscent of Loney Dear's older jams (like home-recorded, more computer-based Ignorant Boy, Beautiful Girl) or perhaps Sigur Ros channeling Sufjan Stevens' folk on a computer, after listening to a lot of Chemical Brothers' albums. You may just need to see him to understand; lucky you, he'll be this side of the pond with his guitar and gadgetry in NY on April 6th at Mercury Lounge and hosting a free show at Coco 66 in Brooklyn on the 7th. Check it.

Sounds Like: Loney Dear, Sigur Ros, Sufjan Stevens, Chemical Brothers
