Comment:

So this is my take on Brian Eno's seminal No New York comp updated for the current era. Not that any of these bands are aping that sound but the connection to the past is pretty clear. Blonde Redhead might be a strange choice as they have been around for almost a decade - but I couldn't ignore them with a name like that. And they seem to be the only of the four that hasn't been swallowed whole by today's Hype Machine. Though this might be construed as a sampling of the "New York sound" I don't think such a scene really exists.
