This is a very underrated Trip-Hop group out of Auckland. They have this 80s-fashioned, dreamy ethereal production work with soft and floating vocals that seems fated for late evening listening. They remind me a lot of Bowery Electric. “Ionian Sea” and “I Hope I See Some Of My Haters Out Tonight” off of their album Lashes are standout songs that I highly recommend.
if melancholy had a sound, it would be this album. dreampop/shoegaze with electronic beats and ghostly vocals. feels like your heart evaporating into a stormcloud. check out Boyracer or Ionian Sea
everyone's always going off about You Will Never Know Why and Velocity:Design:Comfort, but no one is giving their first album Halica the recognition it deserves! The perfect intersection of dream pop, ambient, shoegaze, and a bit of techno influence. Perfect for tuning out or listening intently
Last Thursday, a meteor appeared in the night sky over Los Angeles. I stood in place for 30 seconds watching it blaze brilliant red and orange before fizzling out suddenly. The experience moved me immensely and filled me with a sense of hope that I hadn’t felt in quite some time. I read later that it was a SpaceX satellite. I wish I hadn’t.
There's something about a wet and humid early morning that heals my soul. It's like a free sound bath. Especially if you are lucky and have a little bit of thunder alongside.
I have done this everywhere that I have lived. There are some beautiful images lost on the discarded blank face of a postcard, and they deserve to be cherished just as much as the big piece of art you have framed in your living room. You can find many for cheap at your local thrift. There’s a lot of fun to be had in grouping different images together for a collage effect. Space them out a bit more if it all feels a bit claustrophobic. Use some blue painter's tape for a pop of color.
