I love bandcamp.com. It’s filled with
eccentric, (usually horrible) music – experimental BS, high-school garage bands,
and lots of banjo-toting women, all working so hard for their quirk. Intermixed
are some great musical treasures. Every once and a while I spend the day dredging
the site for treasure-albums.
This album opens with a
charango duet. Yes.
Nicole Monique Wray and her
band deliver fresh 60’s soul with just a teeny hint of modern hip-hop.
Here’s a video of the duo
singing backup for the great soul throwback Lee Fields, who also just released
a new album, Faithful Man.
Four subdued tracks replete
with singing birds and a pretty voice.
Canadian actor, producer,
guitarist for Tropics. A Hound at the Hem takes place in some wonderous
lost dimension.
Slim Twig is working with
lots of amazing Canadian bands, featured below. Come to think it, they might
all hang out together in that same lost dimension.
Love
this album.
Listening to this I can’t
figure out if that emotion I’m feeling is musical joy, or fear for my soul.
Yeah, it’s that kind of music.
Twisted,
echo-ey pop.
I
want to meet Jessica.
Stumbling through this
instrumental album, don’t be surprised when you come across the decaying bodies
of jazz, funk, pop, circus music, and rock ‘n’ roll.
