Breakfast With Riley – Little Dragon

by Mike on October 28, 2011

Morning came early today, courtesy of another almost-4.0 earthquake on the Hayward Fault (a mile from my house, and this was the 5th quake in less than a week. Whoa.).

Fortunately, this morning’s breakfast music choice made almost as much of an impression. For your pleasure, allow me to present…Little Dragon.

I’m pretty late on coming around to these guys, mostly because I first heard of them a couple of months ago when a guest dj on the otherwise very excellent KALX was spinning a crummy remix of one of their songs, and I assumed that they sucked. So glad to find out I’m wrong!

I’m getting sort of a Lauryn Hill + Gary Numan + Billie Holiday vibe from them. You?

    [...] Little Dragon has been my most surprising discovery of 2011, in that I’ve probably listened to their new record “Ritual Union” more than any other new release this year. In a way, these guys give off sort of an updated Eurythmics vibe: strange, icy music + soul and heart in the vocals (though Yukimi Nagano is considerably more low key than Annie Lennox). Again, previously blogged here. [...]
