Just a few months ago Max Justus released his full length Mercy. On his new ep entitled Signs & Wonders Max keeps moving farther and farther away from the original beat making and to continue darker sound. The light peaking through at the end of the tunnel though is the addition of Max’s vocals on all the songs. Tracks like Flesh and Doa are the stand out’s and engage the listener with thoughtful lyrics.
Late in the summer before the release of their fabulous 4 song 12” we recorded a living room session with our band Ad Astra Arkestra. It was an intimate session and night of fun with a few of them in their living room. They played a few different songs including the previous posted cover of Don’t Let Me Down. This song however is the final song on their 12” and its humdinger. It shows off how things can get a little rowdy and the unknown finds a way of happening.
Kansas City’s Dan Eaton makes frenetic mellow music. It’s got that slow rumbling bass that you feel in your solar plexus on a big system, but is just chill enough for a late night makeout sesh. Throw in some 80s synth hooks and a warped glitch-art video and you’ll understand where he’s going with this.
Nathan at The Record Machine tells me the video was “inspired by Lisa Frank Trapper Keeper designs.” Directed by Mike Russo + Dan Eaton. Sport LP is out now.
Almost exactly a year ago we released a new ep from Saharan Gazelle Boy called Strange Teen Heart. We also released a fewvideos for a few of the songs made by multi instrumentalist member John Paul Giago. Well he is back at again this time with a video for Amy Needs A Vacation. Our good buddy yvylnyl was awesome enough to give us a premiere for it and call it favorite from last fall.
Saharan Gazelle Boy has mostly been on hold while Capybara has been finishing their new album but we have been hearing some rumblings recently that some new music is on its way soon.
