Long weekends mean late updates to New Noize. I hope everyone's memorial day weekend went well. I spent the majority of my time running through Hyrule under an overcast Santa Barbara sky. I'm not complaining... Also apologies for the missing tracks this week. Apparently, Spotify doesn't like metal.

New Noize Song of the Week goes to the new single by George Clanton. His vaporwave style is expanding in all the right ways and those ways give me Deftones vibes if the Deftones did vaporwave. Definitely for the kids that like that 90s era sound.

The New Noize Album of the Week was close to impossible to pick. I mean you had new records from Water From Your Eyes, Stuck, Arlo Parks, AJJ, Temps, Kassa Overall, and Kari Faux. All of these records are amazing but this week the cream of the crop goes to Saya Gray with QWERTY. The record is under 18 minutes but what a 17 minutes and 22 seconds. Exciting, bold, fun, untraditional, what I like to call "avante garde lite" and so much more encapsulates what this record is trying to do. I implore you to listen to all the records I just mentioned with Saya Gray's QWERTY at the top.

Did anyone know that Final Fantasy XVI is coming out in 23 days!!!! I don't think I have ever overlapped a Zelda game with a Final Fantasy game but it's happening whether I like it or not. FFXVI is already causing controversy as it is a full-on action game and has ditched all the RPG elements that make a FF game. Normally I would be really upset about this but then I think about how I initially reacted to the FFVII remake, specifically about the newly revamped gaming mechanic. I was upset, talking shit, and wasn't about it until I got the game and was like OH SNAPS this change works. So I will reserve all judgment until I start playing this new installment of one of my favorite gaming franchises.  

Also Street Fighter this week!

Hey there party people. I just found out I have a 4 day long weekend and did not plan accordingly. Corporate calendars am I right?!?!?! It is what it is, let's talk New Noize.

This week's New Noize Album of the Week comes all the way from Karachi Pakistan, specifically Slowspin with "TALISMAN". It is a fantastic record that should grab your attention especially if you rocked with Arooj Aftab. Slowspin standsout soincally and is very difrrent from Arooj but they have a similar style. Check out TALISMAN from cover to cover. I also have to mention Salami Rose Joe Louis new album that also just dropped, "Akoumatikous"  which I could not pronounce on air but I highly recommend. Brainfeeder aka Flying Lotus' label does not miss. Summer Salt also came out with a perfect companion album for nice weather, "Campanita". Now I just need this fog layer to burn off. Another fantastic record you should check out is "Tracey Denim" by bar italna off Matador Records.

The New Noize Song of the Week was no surprise to anyone who knows the show or myself. Anderson Paak and Knxwledge aka NxWoories just dropped their new single "Daydreaming" and it has some sick guitar licks. They have one other newish track that they premiered back in the beginning of this year with H.E.R. on guest vocals. This album is in top 10 most highly anticipated records.

There is still so much to talk about, movies, anime and summer vacation but I'll save that for next time.

What up party people! Another week has come and gone which means another New Noize in the books.

The New Noize Song of the Week belongs to a little band with a huge sound, feeble little horse with "Pocket ''. Saddle Creek has done a great job signing bands with unique style and I am waiting with great anticipation for what the full album will sound like.

New Noize Album of the Week goes to Overmono with "Good Lies" . I was lucky enough to see them open for Chemical Brothers here in Santa Barbara earlier this year and WHAT A RECORD. They have these Caribou like elements in all the right ways. Check out "Good Lies" and tell me you don't feel it and I'll point out someone who doesn't like fun.

We all know the biggest drop of last week, Link is back in the next chapter of  The Legend of Zelda, Tears of the Kingdom. The game is amazing but I am fucking lost as hell. I have put in less than 5 hours and currently I have a shield, a skirt and large stick for any oncoming enemies, so basically how I roll in real life.

Until next Sunday.

Your boy IS BACK!!!!! Did you miss me? Big ups to all who made time for some real life experiences. Did all the things including seeing a Yankees game, going to terminal 5 to see M83, eating mad samosas and so much more.

I had to cut off a TON of music playing catch up all week so apologies if this isn't as new as my other sets, but what a set. This playlist is all over the place in a good way.

The New Noize Song of the Week was difficult AF to pick but I went with Crumb's "Dust Bunny" Don't get me wrong I can't wait for the new BORIS x Uniform colab record out later this year on Sacred Bones but this Crumb split is slick.

New Noize Album of the Week goes to Indigo De Souza ``All of This Will End '' Indigo's continuing narrative really shines sonically on this record. It jumps styles but doesn't lose the core sense of what this album is about. So what is it about? Check it yourself and let this one ride cover to cover with no skips.

In other news TEARS OF THE KINGDOM is dropping this week. I do think this will be the game of the year but don't count out Final Fantasy 16, a next gen ps5 exclusive may take this crown but what a mountain Square Enix has to climb to dethrone the already unnamed king of games. Regardless, me and Link will be traversing Hyrule later this week.

Check you next Sunday.
