Just checking out the latest from Sydney upstart Jonathan Boulet and his new single, ‘This Song Is Called Ragged’, from the forthcoming album We Keep The Beat, Found The Sound, See The Need, Start The Heart. The “swirling, percussive uprising” track will be released digitally and as a double A-side 7″ picture disc bundled with ‘Trounce’ on May 28th on Modular Recordings. The digital release will come with remixes by fellow Sydney noisemakers Dro Carey and Jonti.

It’s the second track to be taken from Boulet’s self-produced sophomore record, to be released June 8 (AUS), June 11 (UK/EU), June 12 (USA).

Jonathan Boulet “You’re A Animal”

Going through the backlog of e-mails in my inbox, I found a press release about Australia’s Jonathan Boulet; ‘a precociously inspired 22 year old skate rat’ who’s been making an interesting brand of uplifting, deeply colorful pop music. Next year will see him put out his forthcoming sophomore album and this track, which isn’t a typo, appears on it. Pounding drums, gang vocals, powerful.

Download “You’re A Animal” or check out the video below for “A Community Service Announcement”.

Jonathan Boulet – “You’re A Animal”

“A Community Service Announcement” started appearing on radars in 2009, a ‘song bouncing with unbridled joy for 21st century dreamers’. The video was directed byThe Special Problems, which sees a gang of misfits charging through the stunning natural landscape on New Zealand’s west coast, coated in a haze of digital distortion.
