Listen: Pillowfight – "Pillowfight" (Full LP Stream)


Today we have a full LP stream of Pillowfight’s debut.  As previously reported the project consist of Dan The Automator, multi-instrumentalist and singer Emily WellsKid Koala and David Choe. For fans of Dan’s past work (particularly Handsome Boy Modeling School and Lovage) there will be obvious similarities between projects but that’s ok because Dan pretty much created that whole trip hop that marries jazzy vocals with down-tempo beats or if you prefer, lounge-funk, that was popular in the late 90’s to mid-2000’s. Some might even say that there is a similarity to the Gorillaz but Dan also produced their debut LP so once again it’s a sound you know but coming from someone who has always done it right. Stream the twelve track self-titled LP below…

Listen: Pillowfight – “Get Your Shit Together”

It’s been a moment since we last shared any material from the forthcoming project featuring Dan The Automator, multi-instrumentalist and singer Emily Wells, Kid Koala and David Choe called Pillowfight. “Get Your Shit Together” sounds a lot like the production Dan gave us on the Deltron 3030 release some ten plus years ago with its blasting horns, snarling vocal melody, sweeping dynamic changes and harmonica scratches, it’s a sound Automator created and perfected for sure.

Video: Pillowfight, A New Project by Dan The Automator (Preview)

Dan The Automator’s name has been back in the spotlight as of late with his work with DRC Music in 2011 and the long awaited follow up to Deltron 3030 which is scheduled to drop sometime in 2012, well it doesn’t end there.  If you caught the interview we posted with David Choe earlier this week you might have heard him mention a musical project he is involved in entitled Pillowfight. The project is composed of Dan, who is handling production duties, Emily Wells, who is providing the vocals,  turntable wizard Kid Koala and David Choe who will be providing the visuals. We now have a preview of some of the music in the form of a teaser for a track called “In the Afternoon” as well as some live footage and an interview.
