Hello !

 

Part Time - Virgo's Maze ( 2015. Burger Records )

 

San Francisco-based David Loca, aka Part Time, is gearing up for the release of his 20-song double-LP Virgo’s Maze. The collection of songs spans the past five years, during which time Speck recorded in Los Angeles, San Francisco, and El Paso. Each track is whimsical and full of ’80s nostalgia in the best possible sense of the word. There are chiming synths and reverberating, fuzzy chords; it feels a little bit like you’re listening to the soundtrack from some forgotten John Hughes film. Not only is Speck’s sound nostalgic, but his recording methods, too: He used a tape machine, reel-to-reel, and USB mixer to record the album. It’s laid back and dreamy, perfect for wasting away in the hot California sun.( http://www.stereogum.com )

Kuroma - Kuromarama - 2015. Votiv Music )

 

Born of the tectonics of 2012, thee current incarnation of Kuroma is set to release the band's new LP, Kuromarama in early 2015. Recorded between the band's hometowns of Brooklyn, NY and Athens, GA, the sound of Kuromarama most closely resembles that of an artisanal prescription spectrum of liquified jollyrancher, each flavor – each color – imbued with a solace wrung from the depths of a salty ocean trench.
