Blog > Title: Local Music Discovery: Sylphid

It’s always exciting to stumble across great music when you least expect to.  That’s what happened when I clicked on the link for Grinding Tapes’ new MySpace friend, Sylphid.  I’m somewhat ashamed to admit that I was mostly checking to make sure they were a legit band that wasn’t going to flood the Grinding Tapes MySpace wall with male enhancement deals.  Sylphid’s understated charm caught me completely off guard and I’ve been listening non-stop since.

Citing influences like Múm, Cepia, and Kira Kira, Sylphid sound like the half-awake recollection of forgotten childhood memories.  The best part is that they’re based in Northampton–Boston’s proverbial backyard.  Fans of organic electronic music akin to the aforementioned bands should check out Sylphid right now.
