i can't get the music of dirty projectors out of my head. it's been weeks now. i wake up with them, trudge through work with them, and rest my head to their songs winding endlessly through my minds ear. i sing their songs in the shower, because everything sounds good in the shower. but, dave longstreth's voice is inimitable. stylistically bringing bob dylan and beyonce together, filtered through a more (please excuse the phrase) punk sensibility. together with his nimble picking, and the beautiful harmonies that speak like angels to a troubled soul; this music made me remember that melody and song need not only be recycled, but can be reinvented.
