Yosei – The Wind-Up Waltz

Howdy. There has been a small Spotify update today, but this release was added some days ago. The genre here is jazz mixed with some folk, pop and rock. Pretty cool stuff. Enjoy Yosei!

(PS. I’m saving some brand new finds for the weekend. Just want to give them a listen first.)

Yosei – The Wind-Up Waltz

Surfer Blood – Astro Coast

Hey there. From the latest Spotify update comes this fine indie/surf rock album by Surfer Blood. Enjoy!

Surfer Blood – Astro Coast

Growing – PUMPS

Good evening. The new Growing album was very recently added to Spotify. From the AMG-review: “Driven by a pulsing kick, Growing’s palette of fuzz shards, goopy gurgles, and vacuum suction is transformed from whispers in the ether to block-rocking beats from a Martian club.” How about that? Recommended listening. Enjoy!

(Thanks to a reader for helping me find this one.)

Growing – PUMPS
