De Lux – “Keyboards Cause We’re Black And White” [2018]

Posted on February 7, 2018 by Very Warm

Another great song from 2018. Disclaimer – I’m currently promoting this album to college radio stations, but I’ll be danged if I can’t say this is a good song on my own blog.

Nami Shimada – “Sunshower” [2004]

Posted on February 6, 2018 by Very Warm

More pop from Japan, this time from Nami Shimada and the techno stylings of Soichi Terada, who is most known for his work on the Ape Escape soundtracks (in my mind, anyway). This song rips and will definitely get you … Continue reading →

Miharu Koshi – “Ryugujyo no Koibito” [1984]

Posted on February 5, 2018 by Very Warm

Realizing that a lot of these posts for February are going to be about Japanese pop music from the 80s, primarily labeled as “city pop.” This is the intro track to one of my favorite pop albums of the era, … Continue reading →

Lou Rebecca – “Neverending” [2018]

Posted on February 4, 2018 by Very Warm

Another entry to great 2018 tracks, from Holodeck Record’s Lou Rebecca. Intoxicating synth pop with serious Glass Candy feels added in there. Lou Rebecca’s new self-titled EP is solid – I’m very likely going to feature it on my albums … Continue reading →

Lane 8 – “No Captain (ft. Poliça)” [2018]

Posted on February 3, 2018 by Very Warm

Another early 2018 standout track comes from CO-based electronic vibeman Lane 8, featuring Channy from Poliça. I wouldn’t say I’m always a huge fan of this type of music, but this song really hits. I’ll give most of the props … Continue reading →

The Supreme Jubilees – “It’ll All Be Over” [1980/2015]

Posted on February 2, 2018 by Very Warm

I’m going to try and post something every day during the month of February, usually consisting of either brand new music or folks that I’ve never posted about before. Yesterday I posted about the brand new Negative Gemini EP, so … Continue reading →

Negative Gemini – “Infin Path” [2018]

Posted on February 1, 2018 by Very Warm

First 2018-related post is a dang good one. I was a big fan of Negative Gemini’s 2016 album Body Work, so I was jazzed to find out that this new EP, Bad Baby, builds upon the sweaty rave stab into dream pop … Continue reading →

Sun Araw – “Holodeck Blues” [2010]

Posted on January 31, 2018 by Very Warm

I would write papers during my final year of college to Sun Araw, one of my favorite psychedelic artists. It would put me in some sort of primal trance, not allowing any confounding thoughts to interrupt my process. I previously … Continue reading →

The Avalanches – “Extra Kings” [2000]

Posted on January 17, 2018 by Very Warm

One of the most underrated closing tracks of all time. Perfectly wraps up this cinematic masterpiece of an album. If the track before this one, “Live At Dominoes,” is the climactic final chase and satisfying ending scene, then “Extra Kings” … Continue reading →
