Black Friday, Cyber Monday, Indie Dojo Tuesday. One of these things will not break your bank. You can thank us later.
Today is the day. The day you try listening to something new. The Indie Dojo is your oyster.
Buffalo Springfield’s iconic single “For What It’s Worth” is a timeless record. It didn’t need an update, but we’re glad it got one from the singer Kaerhart. Her dark, poppy take is totally different than the original, but we all recognize those powerful lyrics.
Kaerhart’s performance of the song is phenomenal and DEAD ROBOT’s production is equally as magnificent. Together their ethereal sound lures you into its web of sound and you let yourself get wrapped up in it without hesitation. Kaerhart is one of those artists that is going to have a big year in 2018. She just launched her project a few months ago, so expect a lot more to come from her in the coming months.
Happy Halloween!! Trick or treat yo self to an Indie Dojo playlist! We promise it won’t give you cavities, a stomach ache or an extra 5 lbs. Just an earful of some wonderful indie-ness for you to enjoy!
To kick off the week we’ve got a special premiere for you here in the dojo. Selfish Skin and the producer Strehlow have come together for a seductive cover/remix of “Wicked Game” by Chris Isaaks. The 1989 single comes to 2017 with a whole new face and we’re loving it.
Selfish Skin shares a style in performance to the original, keeping with its style for audiences to recognize. Of course, she gives a bit of her own flare to the song, updating it with simple strokes from her unique palate. Strehlow’s instrumental keeps along with the original’s more vibey sound. It’s atmospheric and incredibly easy to lose yourself in. Hit play, turn repeat on and start your week off right with “Wicked Game” in its new form. Want a copy? Head over to Bandcamp for it.
Well, here we are. Another Tuesday, another Indie Dojo for us to enjoy. Not much room for complaining here.
