The new (since July, anyway) School of Seven Bells album Disconnect from Desire is on hi-rotate at the writing desk. The Brooklyn electronica trio's first LP Alpinisms was the toast of the post-Jedi generation and anyone else who hadn't heard this sort of thing before but Disconnect is a real breakthrough; a sort of Cocteaus-meets-Casio pocket-sized exotica sound that's the right mix of sentiment and bleary whatevs. And unlike the Cocteau Twins every member of Seven Bells really is a twin - yet there are three of them: Benjamin Curtis from Secret Machines and Alejandra and Claudia Deheza of the annoyingly punctuated On! Air! Library! Anyway, way pretty and recommended for that early morning comedown. Check out 'I L U' from the Heart is Strange EP and 'Bye Bye Bye' from Disconnect from Desire.
