Anika - No One's There

[420animeLover]

She is the female pink floyd voice wise.

[Kiwi1988able]

I was going to say.. Holy shit, NICO IS BACK! but someone already made that point haha

[ButcherGod]

Hmm not as good as I Go To Sleep. atleast to me it's not.

[dandylioness]

Hypnotic. I like this.

[malangsob]

Its the great great grand daughter of Lilli Von Shtupp.

[mangemonpino]

You guys have the vibe most music miss nowadays. Big love from Montreal.

[themeni]

Cool ass reggae sound to it.

[esemoose]

this is so good

[KarolusMagnus]

Wow...its like somebody cloned Nico

[Noonkip]

@KarolusMagnus took the words right out of my mouth.

[TheSouthernGirl27]

I like her hearty voice. It makes for an interesting sample. Plus this beat is sick.

[isukeshimada]

nice! cute!!

[dtuj]

Dope!!

[msnowmi99]

I found this video because I searched my name and this is what I got.

[bandHARDOUT]

AMAZING

best song of 2011



[Ulisexgang]

Just saw her at FIB in Benicasim and she rules a lot... She remembers me Nico.

[KURLYxONE]

Music's ever evolving, I like the new style apporach, sounds indy and reggae ish. Something different.

[ButcherGod]

White Girl Reggae.

[THEWIKANMAN]

This is awesome like Nico fronting the Silver Apples

[dubpsychosis88]

People who don't like her seem to be real cunts, judging from the commenters on here. So at least she has a good fan base.

[nordistria]

Sounds like Portishead... oh wait, produced by Geoff Barrow! Nah, I'm joking. Cool stuff.

[ChocoaNuggetz]

8==== D~ ~ ~  ~~~~~~~~~~~~ o:

[phism]

nico?

[WhiteDwarf18]

Paranoid song.

[chickenandgreens]

I dont care what The Needle Drop or Pitchfork or any music review site says about this album. I love it, I absolutely love it

[DeLaSofia]

I had never undertsood this Anika and her music. But this is nice song, nice bass :) and btw Quasimoto and Anika should do duet sometime :D

[WhiteDwarf18]

Velvet Underground????? they freakin come back!!!!

[stantheman139]

this is weird she cant sing probably my cat can sing better than this!

[SGINNER]

DEAR JESUS HER VOICE IS AWESIOME. You guys who are talking shit about her voice are idiots, go listen to Rihanna or whatever. This is like a raw, mysterious, lost record from the past that ends up on a deeply dug compilation of rare tracks. But she's making this shit NOW, with full intention. BRILLIANT AND STRIKING, not to mention sexy.

[heikotessmann]

@SGINNER You're right.

[derris]

@SGINNER I agree, she's GREAT

[jensen1901]

this is fucking awful. Seriously. Think about it on your own and ask yourself this simple question: if this wasn't on Stereogum or whatever hipster blogs you read, would you buy this?

[pisswah]

@jensen1901 - disagree with you on the awful part, i think its great. I do agree with the hipster bullshit though - my heart sank a little when I saw the Pichfork forecast, it sort of took something away from the music. As far as musical tastes, I'm a fan of the 70s post punk/goth/new wave experimental stuff and this totally reminds me of early Cabaret Voltair Joy Division Bauhuas.

[jensen1901]

@pisswah I am a fan of early cabaret voltaire as well (though i prefer their mid-80s stuff the best). And you are kind of selling Joy Division short by comparing this to genius early JD.

I'd say this is only mildly interesting and not worth getting too excited over.

[dubpsychosis88]

@pisswah P.S. Pitchfork didn't even like her album that much.

[dubpsychosis88]

@jensen1901 1) not all of us are teenagers so stop labeling.

2) I discovered her through a spotify recommendation and loved her instantly.

3) What the fuck is Stereogum?

[jensen1901]

@dubpsychosis88

"what the fuck is Stereogum"

Do you not have Google?

How old are you to not know what Stereogum is, 78?

[dubpsychosis88]

@jensen1901 22.

[jensen1901]

@dubpsychosis88

Then learn how to use Google. Stop wasting my time.

[dubpsychosis88]

@jensen1901 agressive much?

[henrix999]

@jensen1901 its not about where or who posts it, i have just run in to it somehow, thought about her shitty voice first time i have listened to it, now i cant stop listening to whole album - lesson from this? too much thinking can be in fact to your own disadventage if you want to be open to the world because your brain is using patterns it has learned before on judging thing you actually know shit about

[jensen1901]

@henrix999 I have only heard this song. I'm not listening to any more based on this. It sucks. I'll listen to Velvet Underground but not this shit. Thanks.

[themanontheland]

@jensen1901

Different strokes for different folks. Whatevs. Try her cover of Yang Yang?

[1angelmiike]

nice sound

[hypsnotik]

Good music. Terrible singing

[SimonsFiction86]

Yeah, great video, Anika. Liebe Grüße

[Instill23]

I love how stones throw is so diverse when it comes to their artists. They got a taste of everything. From Aloe to Madlib. From Quas to Anika. Its amazing. One day i shall be blessed to be part of the stones throw family. Props to Anika

[snakeoilsounds]

RAD. That dubbed out reverb on the kick is everything.

[AlanRanta]

No, this doesn't sound anything like Joy Division. Yes, it is awesome.

[blipp]

Her voice sounds just like Sonic Youth. Refreshing!

[marchofflamesgmail]

This is SUCH a freshing listen.. Its like if Joy Division was fronted by a lady . Actually breath taking.

[timbulb]

This is like some Wesley Willis shit with better music.

[cormacb1]

awesome, has a bit of a bleak joy division vibe to it.

[DopePairOfShoes]

@cormacb1 Joy Division vibe all the way brother

[lordoid]

You guys always surprise me! Thank you for putting out fresh, orginal music for all these years! You rock!

[korizamusicvideo]

awesome

[antoniosala]

Nicoesque!

[ForstaSvenskenIRymdn]

This is growing on me, classic Stonesthrow thingaroo

[LocalSuicide]

great!!! posted on localsuicide com

[beatbop1]

Great

[AbbottSupreme]

So refreshin' as oppose to the ishh thats coming out as music today Dopeness to the max Peace!!!!!

[condones3]

WTF whoever disliked this is crazy that voice gives the whole song and artist charecter to that style..its like sumhow weird proggresive reggae/dub/easy listening....

[PerpetualRebel]

Same Geoff of Portishead?

[guscutty]

so good

[Chanmigwa]

Celebrate diversity!!!

[SidewaysBurnouts]

Nice.

[venom2k2]

Not my thing at all, but Stones Throw has enough good music and classics :P

[duckinfrombeez]

the deadpan vox seal the deal for me. sick track.

[FINbball]

not really my thing... in my opinion, if you're a singer, you have to be able to sing properly. I don't like this, or Dudley Perkins, or Quasimoto (sure the beats are dope but Madlib's rapping skills.....)

[godofkhan7]

i feel like this could be a dub step remix

[mighteehealthy]

her voice is awesome!!

[msgstudio]

Dope beat. Wack singer. and Quasimoto was dope on first listen!

[Patchankaman]

love it, reminds me of The Velvet Underground & Nico but in 2011

thumbs up for the best music label in the world!

[djtino04]

this and "i go to sleep"...anika!

[NUUU0]

Thank you Stones Throw for enliighting people on the planet earth to day. It is really needed. Love from Sweden and the Source!

[henrix999]

@NUUU0 people are too brainwashed i say, gona need much more stuff like this

[chrisvanthomas]

This is a stonking choon... just a shame nothing else by Anika matches it (in my view)

[pcostel1]

oh it burns!

[Ruca10390]

Her voice reminds me a bit of Kim Gordon. However this is really unique !

[ZForbesOfficial]

this is some crazy shit! i dig it

[VenusRedman]

dark, eerie, creative . Geoff Barrow can do no wrong.

<3

[MADVLN]

Damn I NEED this album!!!

[ashmanprod]

мясо))

[ashmanprod]

[Inspirmentalist]

she has a very interesting sound, this is my first time listening to her as i really only heard hip-hop artists such as mf doom and madlib on stonesthrow.

[deanniebopper]

@Inspirmentalist stones throw have really been spreading out. check out vex ruffin

[paintandillustrate]

@Inspirmentalist Listen to Anika-I go to sleep

[83BigRed83]

Dig the music but the singer's voice sucks to me.

[stonesthrow]

@83BigRed83 same thing people said when we put out Quasimoto

[FlyLo123]

@stonesthrow and i still hate that voice

[ferglaglious]

@stonesthrow speaking of quas, any new material coming out, ever?

in my opinion lord quas is the best thing about stones throw, along with DOOM of course.

[jack00008]

@stonesthrow  thanks for putting out cool record after cool record, i really mean it.

[youbmusic]

@stonesthrow nice comeback, truth

[fuckfacevisions]

@83BigRed83 bro stfu,she probably can sing better,its how she choose to sing it though.

[83BigRed83]

@fuckfacevisions lol, sure thing fuckfacevisions

[demonhunterC]

@83BigRed83 I kind of know what you mean in a way, but she's just so catchy at times too, like with this song and "I go to sleep." a bit of an awkward voice at times, imo, but the catchy hooks (which are in part due to the uniqueness of her vocals) are what keep me listening. it's like getting past what some may consider the awkward, nasally vocals of billy corgan before you can really enjoy the smashing pumpkins.

[B0ggster]

on a dope chart scale this is 100% dope

[djwerd]

My favorite track off the album.

[crankycactus]

wow hahaha i like
