Blood Diamonds is the record alias of Mike Tucker, and he’s become Vancouver’s latest buzz-generator. (Don’t worry, Dirty Beaches, this town is big enough for both of you.) Tucker’s music is woozy, reverb-hazed electro pop with a distinct R&B influence. Given the recent success of like minded acts like How to Dress Well and the Weeknd, it’s no surprise that he’s found some traction in the blogosphere. I’m pretty sure I saw this dude at the Waldorf last weekend. He’s hard to miss.
