Stereogum has included the new Toro Y Moi record Causers of This, due out February 23rd on Carpark Records, as one of their 25 most anticipated albums of 2010.
TORO Y MOI – CAUSERS OF THIS
FEBRUARY 23 (CARPARK)
Toro Y Moi, aka multi-instrumental Columbia, South Carolina bedroom recordist Chaz Bundick, aka the bedroom psychedelicist with the biggest R&B swing, started buzzing after Carpark signed him up to release two full-lengths in 2010 and then leaked two MP3s, “Blessa” and “109,” one from each collection. We’ll be getting Causers Of This first, which opens with the aforementioned “Blessa” and closes out with the title track. (You may already be familiar with another cut, “Talamak.)”
It’s pretty cool that Chaz is finally getting some national recognition. From the birth of his Toro Y Moi project, national music websites like Stereogum and that “other one” have been all about him.
For me I’ll just stick to the real thing known as The Heist and The Accomplice.
