Clams Casino: Wizards are Advanced. In Wizardry


Adult Swim keeps it poppin' so hard these days. Their weekly singles program is great, offering free songs from ADVANCED fav's like How to Dress Well, Active Child,Ford & Lopatin (I liked them a lot better when they were Games but that's another post entirely) and now Clams Casino! You can read tons more about the artists and get lots of downloads and streams from the links above (so much Clams Casino and How to Dress Well, in particular,here at ADVANCED). The new single "Wizard" has everything we love about Clams Casino: a dope laid back beat, plenty of little pretty details and woozy melodic synths. This time the synthesizer sounds have a triumphant prog/metal sound, which may explain the title.You can get it and all the singles from Adult swim here. Stream "Wizard" below.




The Clams man has still been busy producing beats for rappers. He seems to have songs coming out with every indie hip-hop star on the scene today. This one with ASAP Rocky is getting some airplay around the old ADVANCED homestead and has hooks galore.

Lil' B has been a huge supporter and key to Clams Casino's success and here he pays Lil' B by lacing him with a beat that samples "Cry Little Sister" of  The Lost Boys fame. If you were anything like me, this song was big in your childhood so it's a pleasure to hear it used here and is another of example of Clams particular version of genius.
