One Song: Serengeti + Sicker Man - Doctor My Own Patience

Joel Frieders | November 22, 2016
I sat on this song all weekend.  Meaning, I started it and then tuned out, almost on purpose, before starting the song over. If you looked at my play count it would reach into the two tree dozens. It somehow distracted me from my own distractions. Was...

One Song: Kauf - Pacify

Joel Frieders | November 21, 2016
I consider Kauf one of my favorite fonts.  It isn't like his music is just a "type", or of a certain "style", it's that his music is so fucking appreciated I use it like I use my favorite fonts; all day, and sometimes in all caps, and...

One Song: Hembree - Holy Water

Joel Frieders | November 16, 2016

One Song: Koresma - Sun Begins To Pour

Joel Frieders | November 16, 2016
I don't know how this dude keeps making music that simultaneously puts me in a food coma and makes me want tacos. Normally it's the latter then the former, but here Koresma knows I'm hungry, but taps me with his witchin' stick on the forehead...

One Song: Aces - If I Could Be Your Girl

Joel Frieders | November 14, 2016
No fucking clue who this woman is besides her being the vessel that just delivered a whole bunch of hormonal nostalgia of being a 14 year old kid listening to Sarah McLachlan's Fumbling Towards Ecstacy. Holy shit, can you hear that? Sarah was the first woman...

One Song: Flora Cash - Sadness Is Taking Over

Joel Frieders | November 11, 2016
Holy. Fuck. Flora Cash now sounds like a non-whimpering Bon Iver fronting an acoustic electric version of Portishead that is just as moody as the original, but holy fuck I had never considered that matchup, but DAAAAAMN THIS IS PERF! If I...

One Song: Cas One - Happy Anniversary

Joel Frieders | November 1, 2016
I've loved this dude as a friend for a long time. I loved him as a friend before I had even became actual friends with him. The fact that he raps alls goods is secondary to how much I even like thinking about hanging out with him and slamming pogs and playing...

One Song: The Midnight Echo - Guide You Home

Joel Frieders | October 26, 2016
So The Midnight Echo used the word "anthemic" in their music submission and I was all crossed arms like "bro, you can't call yourself anthemic, that's anti-anthemic bro".  AND THEN I LISTENED AND THEN WHEN THE SONG ENDED I WAS ON TOP OF MY...

One Song: Hanging Valleys - Coast Days

Joel Frieders | October 7, 2016
How does this dude make EVERY song he writes sound like I'm waking up on a fucking beach? Seriously, Hanging Valleys always makes me feel like I'm just waking up, I rub my eyes, and I'm startled that the eye boogs I go to wipe out of my eyes...

One Song: Ballerina Black - Telepathy

Joel Frieders | October 4, 2016
Ballerina Black are my favorite trenchcoat wearing 80's synth warriors. These guys take overcast skies and black denim, smoosh them together, and make shit sexy as fuck.  Over the last two tree four years I've relied upon their disinterested...
