New Dirty Projectors record Bitte Orca leaked and on that first listen it's pretty spectacular, especially that first single, "Stillness Is the Move." Gorgeous harmonies and, really, that's all you need. "Two Doves" is a thing of beauty as well, a sweeping and humming love song for when the light shines through the bedroom window and maybe it's a little too cold to get up, but that's okay - there's nothing for you outside of the bedroom anyway. Strangely enough, the next track is "Useful Chamber," six and a half minutes of more glorious layers of voice, delicately picked guitar, and one of the best chorus/hooks I've heard this year, the slight chant "bitte orca orca bitte." Next song "No Intention" meanders through this guitar straight out the Orient: simple, fresh, exotic, tempting. Awesome.
Domino decided to give away the single for free for a limited time, so snatch it up here before it's too late.
Also you can pre-order the "Stillness Is the Move" 12" here. That will be available May 5 through Domino.
