Last September I found out about the music of Lorin Ashton, better known as Bassnectar.  I don’t care who you are, a name like that is hard to resist.  Turns out his song titles are pretty juicy, too (Churn of the Century, Wicked Twitch of the West, Nostalgia Worship, Segg Weigh).  Scrolling through the list of tracks, I settled on ‘Laughter Crescendo’ and took it for a spin.  I am a big, big fan of a lot of his stuff but Laughter ended up being my token song for the fall.  Some people may find the giggles a little creepy, I do not.  Sure, it has its eerie moments, but you could say the same for a certain autumn month.

This time around it sounds just as good as last year, but now it’s got some company.  Cozza Frenzy is the name of the newly released LP, on which he dubsteps all over Mr. Projectile’s ‘Love Here’.  The new album in its entirety is good listenin, but that one particularly stands out and makes for some good fall vibes.

Onjoy

Often I find myself listening to music based on the time of year.  That’s either when I first started listening to a particular song, artist, genre or it just fits the weather outside.  At least for me, the fall season is one generally reserved for folk, but last year around this time, I plugged in and discovered some tasty lowtempo electro grooves.  Now that autumn is (finally) back, it’s time revisit some of last year’s favorites along with a few fresh newbies I’ve just recently picked up.  Thus we begin a seasonal miniseries of sounds that drift somewhere between the upbeats of summer and mellow of winter, songs and artists that really hit the sweet spot for these next couple of months.

First up, two from Tommy Guerrero:
