Tomorrow Becomes You by Slow Six

Music is like chemistry. Sometimes, you have to mix this and that to find the perfect combination. Experiment is the key. Slow Six did that and thus the result is Tomorrow Becomes You, ambient, shoegaze, drone, post-rock and contemporary classical all in this epically long length album. This album gave me a very cosmic feel. Is almost like you are in some distant planet and somehow you are listening to some music band...

Dead Waves by Kyte

Kyte left me at a cross road after listening to their first full-length album Dead Waves  that released last month. At times, it sounded like Sigur Ros, the soundtrack kind of music.  Sometimes, it sounded like Animal Collective. At some point, I relate them to Snow Patrol. Puzzle me may the album be, but I can’t deny that I like this album. It convinced me that for Kyte best is yet to come.  Kyte create...

How To Be A Child & Win the War by Electric Litany

The story of the band started, when Alexandros and Richard met in London. Alexandros moved from Corfu to London, while Richard was leaving Devonshire for London in search of forming a band of his own. Duane was the last member to join the band, since he was found by Alex and Richard through an ad. With How to be A Child & Win the War, Electric Litany had created a distinctive and characteristic sound of their...

Constellations by Balmorhea

Perhaps, it is more suitable to said that Balmorhea had back to basic with their fourth album Constellations where it strips the electric instrumentation and just purely focused on acoustic instrumentation with piano and guitar. Live up to the album name Constellations, this is an album for a silent and starry night, light breeze caressing ones face gently, and as time goes by with the notable music notes ones slowed...

...And They Have Escaped The Weight Of Darkness by Olafur Arnalds

Majestic, graceful, gorgeous, melancholic and emotional is the best way to describe this fully instrumental album by Ólafur Arnalds, an multi-instrumentalist and producer from Mosfellsbær, Iceland. This album slowly peeled your emotion piece by piece and eventually exposing your emotion in the most vulnerable state ever. Leaving echoes of memories that haunted you ever since you can remember, lingering still even though...

Gully Lights

This band is legit! I kid you not! It is a four-man band composed of members Forrest Jessop (lead singer/leadguitar and piano), Clarence Jessop (lead singer/rhythm guitar and piano), Ben Herbert (bass guitar), and George Jessop (drums and percussion). And all of them were related, Three brothers and One cousin. Their music is incredible mind blowing good. I am almost in tears when I discovered their music and undeniably...

Seadrift Soundmachine by Blaudzun

Seadrift Soundmachine is the sophomore album from Blaudzun a singer-songwriter from Netherlands, which was named after an unknown Danish cyclist, Michael Blaudzun. His real name however is Johannes Sigmond. Anyhow back to this album, all I can said is this album is wonderful. Mellow, melancholic but not to the extend that it actually drowned you and also very folksier. This is the album to get if you just want to have...
