Jam of the Day: Sufjan Stevens & Lowell Brams - "The Runaround"
On "The Runaround," the latest preview of Sujan Stevens' upcoming record Aporia which he did with his stepfather Lowell Brams, you can tell Stevens has listened to a lot of Boards of Canada. I am really liking this metallic sounding track.

Jam of the Day: Yppah - "Tree Ghost"
Multi-instrumentalist Yppah blends elements of rock, shoegaze, ambient, and electronica into his own sound. You can think of Yppah as Tyco's younger goth brother giving the music a slightly dark edge. "Tree Ghost" is a pulsing, undulating track that has an amazing build to it. You can find it on his latest record Sunset in the Deep End.
