Onuino--Mirror Gazer
Label: Bladen County Records/ BadCopBadCop

Straight outta Portland, this is Onuino's debut album. A combination of electronic pop, disco, and ambient all in one. Hip-hop beats are core to most tracks, along with cool spacey synth usage. Almost all tracks have light male vocals. Really neat stuff! Sounds like: Toro Y Moi, M83, Hot Chip.

FCC's: none
Picks: 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 8

*1. (5:43) Funky baseline, poppy male vox, tropical vibes and oceans sounds.
**2. (4:09) Shimmery jam with great synths, male box, and a bit more noise. "Always Awkward" :p
*3. (1:54) Ambient gold. Water dripping, skittering beats, too short though.
*4. (5:02) Tight synth disco groove, driving with cool textures. Nice male vox. Lushly layered and psychedelic.
5. (6:32) Cheezy late nite grinding track with male vox. Disco repetitive synths and knocks.
6. (1:09) Kewl growing synth interlude, ends around 0:58
*7. (5:27) Chiller. Really neat driving hip hop synth beat mixed with noises, bouncing synths, and excited male vox.
**8. (4:55) Bleepity bloops, churning beats, male vox, all plowing along with lush layered synths. ends 4:45
9. (5:22) Faster lite-rock song with heavier guitars, male vox, drums,
