Earlier today we presented you with Real Estate‘s mellow update on “Green River.” We called the guys busy then — new album, forthcoming EP — and I think it’s appropriate to repeat it now: Here’s “Sandglider” from Real Estater Matt Mondanile’s ambient Ducktails project. It’s a ambling outtake from his Landscape LP. If you want to position it somewhere, “Sandglider” has more immediate forward momentum than “Roses” and keeps up just fine with “Landrunner,” albeit with a slightly somber gait.
Landscapes is out via Olde English Spelling Bee. This is not on it. While we’re talking about things to do at the beach, don’t forget “Parasailing.”

i swear this is the same exact jam my buddy and i recorded in 5th grade when we first starting playing guitar and got a cheap drum machine.
same shitty recording techniques, same shitty guitar tones, same brainless snyth lines…I’m calling my lawyer.
were you watching, ahem, “Ducktails”?
ha, so much so i bet
y’know add some dirty low down r&b funk to this stuff, then call it fucktails maybe
hey yuktails — send me these jams you speak of pronto!! let’s talk business/////
yo yuktails,
send those heady brew jams over to chocolate bobka. all we do is repost this crap.
ha “heady brew jams”
I unfortunately don’t have a copy of my 5th grade experiments anymore…and I was kidding about the lawyer thing. also, my name isn’t really yuktails, it’s Clumpy Titmilk.
Landscapes is one of my favorite albums of the year. I think I enjoy his solo work more than I do Real Estate.
