"This was the first song Denise and I ever recorded together, about three or four months before memoryhouse became a dedicated project. It was a spontaneous recording done really late at night, but it had this indelible nervous energy that gave Denise’s voice that extra hint of vulnerability that underpins Browne’s yearning, despondent lyrics so well. These Days ended up being a thesis of sorts for us, whose lyrical themes would go on to figure heavily in our first song, Lately." - Memoryhouse blog

Memoryhouse // These Days (Nico Cover)
Active Child // She Was a Vision
Figured I'd post more to make up for my short hiatus. Just two tracks on this puppy, but DAMN are they good. They're coming out with a full length in June, and I for one cannot wait. This is some truly atmospheric chillwave/dream pop/ whateverthefuckyouwannacallit.
Standout Tracks:
// She Was a Vision
// Voice of an Old Friend
(aka all of them)
Hypermagic // Collected Recordings
Letting Up Despite Great Faults // Self-Titled

Candy Claws // In The Dream Of The Sea Life
Some absolutely beautiful music! I use the word "dreamy" far too often as i'm too lazy to expand upon what i'm talking about. But goddamnit, it fits motherfucker. This is some dreamy electronic shoegaze, and it's been blowing my mind.
// The Sun Is My Girl
// Not Strange Winged Snail
// Snowy Shores
// Starry Fighter Kite

Small Black // Self Titled
More dreamy electronic pop. Once again I find myself addicted. I've just been in the mood for this kind of shit lately. This band has received more plays than the other stuff i've posted recently, so I suppose that's an indicator of it's quality- if you happen to value my taste. I'd say if you download one thing from this blawg, let it be this album.
Standout Tracks:
// Midnight's House
// Kings of Animals
// Lady in the Wires
// Bad Lover
// Despicable Dogs

Millionyoung // Be So True EP
Millionyoung // Sunndreamm EP
M. Pyres // Consider Me, Ghost
Some extremely chill lo-fi post-folk music for ya this post. I meant to put this up ages ago, but never really got around to it. My posting has become real erratic, and it'll likely continue to be this way; don't make the mistake of thinking i'm done with this shit though. As long as I keep seeing downloads on the things I upload, i'll continue.
Standout Tracks:
// Title Track
// Loud Lights
// Imagists Complex
// A. Ocean_MJA
