Ranny Recommends: Toy

Toy: A brilliant (down tempo/trip-hop) electronic album that seems to almost be an imaginative childhood soundtrack. It was just released this year and I think it was a bold attempt on something unique. The track titles and overall sound on each track help conjure a lot of fun imagery. I feel as though it would've been great to hear this type of music on lets say: 'Pee-wee's Playhouse' or perhaps even a really silly animated cartoon because it sounds well, animated! Nevertheless, the entire album (which transitions from one song/adventure to the next) retains a magical charm that will leave you feeling euphoric!

Toy - Valley Cars
Toy - Rabbit Pushing Mower
Toy - Grass Beatbox

'Valley Cars' is simply my favorite. I like the kazoo sound in the beginning (I think it's a kazoo--perhaps its another musical toy instrument, not sure) but I think this song will help you understand the imaginative quality that this album embodies. Let me know what you think about this recommendation--oh! I'll be going to my local art store soon and I need to stock up on supplies, if anybody uses some specific brand (you use and love) and would like to suggest to me, please do so cos I'm really looking for top notch stuff. Watercolour, pens, pencils, paper, sketchbooks, anything, really! Thanks everyone and enjoy the music!
