Moon Racer - Is It Really A Secret?

Just under twenty minutes of fuzzy, hazy perfect pop. Feels intimately handmade in the best possible way, like something that was recorded just for you by a close friend.

Cindy Lee - Cat O’ Nine Tails

If you, like me, were bowled over by the brilliance of Cindy Lee’s Diamond Jubilee, you need to give this one a listen. It’s noisy, slightly synth-y sad guitar pop songs. This feels very Lynchian, in the sense that it’s a bit off-kilter, haunting, while remaining soulful and earnest.

Panda Bear & Sonic Boom - Reset

I set out to listen to Panda Bear’s newest one (the last track features Cindy Lee!) but I stumbled onto this one and got stuck here instead. I’m very familiar with Sonic Boom’s work, but I’ve never actually paid attention to him as an artist before now. This album is mostly built from simple looped samples and there’s something in how it’s put together that’s full of noises that make my brain buzz.

Heavenly Music Corporation - Lunar Phase

I stumbled upon the massive archive of Japanese ambient satellite radio station St. Giga earlier this week (see below) and while doing some more research, I found this album. It’s a 30 year old album of ambient electronic music recorded for the aforementioned radio station and it still feels vital and brand new.
