Scuzzy Tune from Dan Svizeny

I think the recording on this track is what’s got me hooked.  It’s really muddy, with Dan Svizeny‘s vocals buried way low in the mix, almost melting into the track as another instrument.  You can hear the sonic connection from label mates like Cloud Nothings and Best Coast, applying grittiness to traditional pop structures for the purpose of differentiation; even with the muddy quality, there’s still an evident bounce to the tune.  Grab yourself a copy of Dan’s new album, Whitecaps, now from Group Tightener.
