Dirty Beaches / Paris
A nice little poppy beat surrounded by a great atmosphere of sound. Coming from Vancouver’s Alex Zhang Hungtai.
(sorry for lack of posts lately: switching jobs and moving)
Sun Dial / Tremolo
From their 1992 release “Reflector”.
Lanterna / Riverside
Lanterna creates amazing picturesque landscapes with sound, which has been labeled “Ambient Americana”. After listening to them for a couple of years, I learned that Lanterna is actually Henry Frayne from Champaign, IL. A town only a few miles from where I grew up. Anyway, do yourself a favor and pick up “Desert Ocean” and “Sands” at the very least.
Foxtail Somersault / A Love Song Part I
This is my favorite Dreamesque Pop band to emerge in the last year. Here is an instrumental from their Fathom EP.
