Album Review

So glad people out there make music like this and don’t keep it to themselves and share it with KZSU (and hopefully pull it off at thee parkside or hemlock). Sounds like home recorded twisted songsmithing with proper adjustments, addition of effects, all with rudimentary drum machines with distant pretty female vocals abounding. Just plain dreamy stuff. Play with Luxerious Bags, I Am The World Trade Center, etc.

1) slow plod, nice stoned head sway with female vocals treated just right
2) brief, compacted strange treated synth
3) fun bouncy feel, echoey female vocs, this whole thing makes life really fun and worth living, play it!!
4) buzzy melodic drone put through a very slow phase/flange, I love it!
5) this has a pleasant simple beat that is impossible to not love, low-fi but so melodic and songworthy, female vocals buried in hemp compost and designer drugs
6) another lovely female fronted strange song, with toy piano figuring highly, but call this “twee” or “toy pop” and I will personally throw you in front of Caltrain #514, because the subtle noise ending is dreaming, if too short
7) brief, female fronted, plod beat
8) a beautiful ambient echoey thing with what seems like a past girlfriend whispering in my ear over and over while I was in a deep sleep.
Okay, its just an echo, but just the same….
9) upbeat electro but noise low fi
10) mid/slow swingy, guitar appears and swings and is just lovely
