Discovery, a new project from Vampire Weekend's Rostam Botamanglij and Ra Ra Riot's Wes Miles, just goes to show that some people cannot get enough of appropriating the musical aesthetics of brown people (kidding!). On a serious note, "Orange Shirt" is a really encouraging neo-R&B track, even if Botamanglij and Miles haven't quite reached the level of Justin Timberlake or The Dream. Anyone who has enough good sense and talent to get on the "emergent pop-excellence" train that R&B is riding at the moment is probably moving in the right direction. Look for an LP from Discovery by this summer. [Transparent via The Fader]
