Last Week’s Jams (8.28 – 9.1)

It was definitely a busy week on my end, but we pushed through and still managed to crank out some really great music for you all. RayRay got to run the sweet new album stream for Grimson‘s new LP, and I was just hopping all over the place like musical ADHD music junkie I am. Had some good power-pop from the Slow Summits and Colored Lights, to give you some energy. Some great ballad work by Austin artists Feeling Small and Daily Worker to warm and make you cry at once. Plus, I got to bump that new jam from Pachyman, not to mention our weekly dose of all the goods from Australia like Lower Plenty, Screensaver, and Vintage Crop. Stream on below, amigo!

Born Days Share Deep Empty (DMT Feelings)

Melissa Harris’ project Born Days is set to release their debut album this Fall, and I immediately began fawning when I heard the latest single. Those heavily weighted synth notes definitely sound like all the electronic influences I grew up with in 80s soundtracks. That said, the production and the balance is something I really appreciated here, giving the song a bit more emotional depth…for me anyways. I love the way Harris voice hangs in the air, like a scene straight out of a gothic version of Frozen. The pace pickup on the synths before the 3 minute mark really sets up the album’s close perfectly. It’s kind of like the Knife, but honestly, a bit more accessible. My Little Dark is out on October 6th via AudioSport.
