From “32 Feet Per Second” (12/22/2009)
“#34 — Logan Lynn: “Feed Me To The Wolves” — We heard a lot of glossy, synth pop/rock this year. Logan Lynn, a label-mate of The Dandy Warhols, managed to separate himself from the pack. “Feed Me To The Wolves” isn’t just a shimmering, urgent bit of post-Postal Service electro-pop. It builds into an architectural elevation with bright keyboards clashing with double-tap drums. The stakes are high as Lynn freely admits, “You can feed me to the wolves if I make one mistake.” He doesn’t specify who these predators are, but we can assume that anyone who spent time in the music industry knows, the wolves are always at the door.”
Nice one, right? WOOT!

Dec 7, 2009Comments Off on NEW REMIX! "WRITE IT ON MY LEFT ARM" VS. "BAD LIFE PLUS GADGETS"!!!
My friends Jean Goode and Teddy Forthewin (“Asteroid Belt”) are “Bad Life Plus Gadgets” and reside in NYC. Carlos Cortes (the producer I worked with on “From Pillar To Post”) moved East to work on Jean’s solo record and is currently wrapping it up. The ladyvoice you hear on here (as well as on my record periodically alongside Jen Folker from “Dahlia”) is Ms. Goode. She’s a supertalent.
This remix appears on Volume 3 of my “Blood In The Water” Remix EP Collection. Have a listen to “Write It On My Left Arm (Bad Life Plus Gadgets Remix)” HERE—>
Perty cool, huh? The remixes are only available HERE until after the new year, so pick yours up now!
Dec 5, 2009Comments Off on "ZIP & A KICK!" MUSIC BLOG REVIEW CALLS LOGAN LYNN'S "FROM PILLAR TO POST" ONE OF THE BEST RECORDS OF 2009!!!
The “Zip and a Kick” music blog reviewed my new album “From Pillar To Post” today and had some really nice stuff to say about it which you can check out HERE. I’ve also posted a bit of it just below.
From “Zip and a Kick” (12/5/2009)
“Grey Skies Are Smiling. Few things in this world make me happier than coming across new music. And thanks to one of my favorite bands, The Dandy Warhols, I recently discovered a handsome fellow named Logan Lynn. I don’t think I’ve listened to an album on repeat for a while (previous records include Air’s Talkie Walkie and Beck’s Guero), and this one definitely fits the bill. Since it’s difficult to place Lynn in any one musical genre, I’ll give you my interpretation: It’s ElectroFolk you can dance to.
Signed to the DW’s Beat The World Records, fellow homogay Logan Lynn released his album From Pillar To Post digitally in September and officially in November. Lynn’s third studio album evokes the sound and feeling of his native Portland, creating a moody-pop masterpiece that hits all the sweet spots. Effortlessly melodic vocals are supported and enhanced with keyboards, synthesizers, and haunting-yet-comforting ambient sounds. It’s especially evident on the stellar tracks, “Feed Me To The Wolves” and “Bottom Your Way To The Top”.
In a year of so much good music, I’m happy to go on record in saying that Lynn’s first release for Beat The World is a transcendent, electronic dream – and one of the best albums of 2009.”
