Last Week’s Jams (5.29 – 6.2)

Felt like we covered a whole lot of territory last week, which was mostly me just working super hard to keep myself occupied over summer vacation. There were so many great songs that I felt people overlooked in the big indie world, such as the new stuff from Wireheads and Big Blood. Or maybe you can go on with the old dependable from Balmorhea, the Clienteleor High Water Marks. Going back through, definitely appreciating stuff like the Sheeps track and the Chopper tune too, so you’ve got plenty to be excited about when you burn through this playlist. Get on it.

The Electric Arch Share You’re Impossible to Get Close To

When I first heard this track from The Electric Arch, I kept expecting something to land somewhere in the land between Massive Attack and Air; it has this sort of natural snappy beat that opens up seductively to allow the vocals to enter the picture. Once those vocals do drop into the frame, there’s something that reminded me of Edwyn Collins solo stuff, toying with the listener with this clever bit of coyness. When the chorus arrives, it all collides together, taking in this sort of space lounge mentality that I have really been enjoying this morning; I’ll keep you posted as we hear more from the New Orleans outfit.
