Since we love all of you more than life itself, the self-titled staff thought we’d spend the tail end of Valentine’s Day sharing our favorite “love” songs.

FEATURE: Mountains Reveal Their Strangest Field Recordings
February 10, 2010
As we continue to battle blizzard-like conditions over at self-titled towers, we can’t think of a better back catalog to plow through than Mountains‘ organic take on ambient music. And by organic, we mean lots of living, breathing samples, sharing wide open spaces with carefully-plucked guitars and crystallized keys. Since the Brooklyn-based duo is appearing […]
