MacNuggets

CFCF's debut album Continent glides along as if soundtracking its own slick future noir film. There's the umbrella-less, lonely walk scene ("Raining Patterns"), the nightclub scene (the cover of Fleetwood Mac's "Big Love"), the hacking-the-mainframe scene ("Break-In"), the slow, ambiguous fade-out ("You Hear Colours"). It's no wonder the 21-year-old behind CFCF, Michael Silver, loves the Knife and Hollywood auteur Michael Mann (Heat, Miami Vice).

Based in Montreal, Silver's origin story mirrors that of many current producers: he started making music in his room, put it on MySpace, came up with a hit remix (Crystal Castles' "Air War"), and started collecting fans as far as the web can stretch. After two EPs, Panesian Nights and The Explorers, Continent is due out October 27 via Paper Bag.
