Thanks to South Korean cars and an 18-and-over cartoon television block, we are going to be getting free singles every week for nine weeks from bands such as Best Coast, How to Dress Well, Mastodon, The Tallest Man on Earth and The Rapture. There's also a highly anticipated collaboration between jj and Ne-Yo, as well as a mystery artist yet to be unsheathed for the final week of the program. Previously unheard and fresh off the chopping block, Kia-sponsored Adult Swim's Singles Program is a break from the crude, lewd and hilarious programming of Cartoon Network's late night set that instead ventures into exposing its audiences to new and wonderful music.
This week we saw music from Ford & Lopatin, who's track "Too Much MIDI (Please Forgive Me)" can be heard above. It's exploding with liquid electronic squeals and 80s-era percussion, much like chillwave but crisper. Download it below on your way to seeing who's planned to release new music each week.
