Suddenly, voices
Obsessed.
Still loving this artist Black Marble aka Chris Stewart. He’s released records on Hardly Art and Ghostly International. xoxo
California days
Pretty remarkable that the indie “band” Day Wave is actually just one guy- Jackson Phillips. He’s originally from Oakland and recently moved to my very own hometown, Echo Park. Check out his other track “Gone” as well. It’s one of my faves.
Prog wave
The best electronic music always comes from the UK or Paris, doesn’t it? Lately I’ve been obsessed with this producer Emil Rottmayer’s vibe. A friend had sent me a compilation of new wave-inspired beats, made by some gamer dude, and that is how I eventually found this track. Enjoy!
Coachella Valley cumbia
I somehow forgot to post this as soon as it came out. Love this vid, especially the opening sequence. These guys are the best thing to come out of the Cali desert in recent years (or ever?)Jana Doe (from NJ)
Been meaning to post this track, “Economics (Jana Doe x cityGirl) from NJ-based artist Jana Doe, aka Joanna Harris, for a while. Wish her vocal track had been mixed so you can hear her angelic voice a bit more. I adore her vocal style. The instrumentals are sweet, though - languid and sensuous.
Sweet soul revival
Can’t get enough of this version of “Is It Any Wonder?” by Louisiana-based Durand Jones and the Indications. That falsetto register and the instrumentation are a dream. (The vocalist here is actually the drummer of the band)
Chill beats
Good vibes from Amsterdam-based Detroit Swindle ♡:
