Grimes - REALiTi (video)

This is a new Grimes song. Apparently its not on her new album. Poss because its too poppy? Its hard to say why she would leave this tune off a new LP, unless all her other tracks are way doper, but this is a serious club banger. Jittery stabs and the unmistakable wisp of Grimes's voice are present, as is the grimey synth used for Better Off Alone. This is a throbbing, club-next-door sort of track, where you feel like you're just missing the melody or something, but then you listen and you're like oh yeah there it is, right under my nose! Also this is fantastic vid, which we should all expect from Grimes these days. Dancing in weird, hidef environments its totally her jam. And it totally werks. Get it done:

Grimes - "Genesis"

Grimes is a blog babe. This post is almost pointless, cuz she's seriously on like every other blog right now :( ...but who cares! Grimes had a good 2011 with her D'eon split EP Darkbloom (who coincidentally sounds a bit like Phil Collins era Genesis) and she'll probs have an even better 2012! Her new single "Genesis" is tight. A ghostly arpeggiator slinks out the bass line, as Grimes does her 12yr old whisper/whine thing that somehow = a banger.
