Artist: MI AMI
Title: Decade
Label: 100% SILK
Format: CD
Price: $12.00
Catalog #: SILK 020CD
Follow-up to last year's Dolphins on Thrill Jockey. "On Decade (Daniel Martin-McCormick) returns to work with Damon Palermo as half of Mi Ami, a record released by Not Not Fun offshoot 100% Silk, who helped establish Ital through a series of 12" singles in 2011. It's an apt way of tethering Martin-McCormick's dual careers, of drawing an easy line between them, especially when the expansive deep house influence at the heart of Decade kicks in." --Pitchfork

Title: Dolphins
Label: THRILL JOCKEY
Format: 12"
Price: $14.00
Catalog #: THR 012.47EP
"Dolphins is a melting, dystopian refraction of left-field new age, lush soundscapes and Italo daydreams overlapping with slaughtered dolphins and the heartbreak of 'Hard Up.' Simultaneously ingesting and rejecting pop pleasure, wide-eyed optimism and modern despair, it is equal parts improvisatory winging it and forceful, fully-realized vision. Blurring the line between the tainted and the sublime, Dolphins is the sound of a band thrillingly re-imagining itself."

Title: Steal Your Face
Label: THRILL JOCKEY
Format: CD
Price: $14.00
Catalog #: THR 237CD
"Mi Ami is committed to their own particular joyful noise, to the intersection of vicious high-energy playing with ebullient communal experience. In this climate, when pretty much every band has some dub records at home and a myriad of musical influences have been rendered mundane, Mi Ami defines itself by turning inward. Where before, melodies had been suggested, here they are fully developed. Where structure had previously meandered, here each song uses a minimum of means to 'get to there,' allowing the playing to fly free. And, where lyrics had been left unprinted, here they are laid out completely, an integral part of the music. Technically, there are four components to Mi Ami's music: Drums, Bass, Guitar and Vocals. And yet, essentially there is only one: the unified sound, more than the sum of its parts, each individual component coming from and returning to the singular whole. Anyone interested in understanding what Mi Ami is about would do well to start with this album. More concise than Watersports , more confident than their other pre-Thrill Jockey releases and better sounding than anything else they have done, Steal Your Face marks their arrival as a fully-formed, organically mature band."
