l_d8b740e0ca9240aeb7c25801c60cda45

i have been remiss in not posting anything on washed out yet. best of the electro-pop hazy/lofi acts happening right now. at the end of the day, it’s all about harmonies and a sense of clarity within the noise:

Tall Hands: "Monolith" AUDIO

monolith
monolith, Gonzopowers | CC BY

in regards to lofi/post-punk i am no hobo radio but i do get my rocks off on the barren/introverted vibe that both genres seep. it is hard to find bands who are into that sort of thing down here in sunny LA and for good reason – the beach is right around the corner and it is way too nice outside for us to be acting like we live in blade runner’s los angeles. tall hands came from new york originally so i guess that means they are a bit more cold blooded. anyway this track, monolith, is the jam and still manages to pull off a fun vibe:

Dum Dum Girls: "Catholicked" AUDIO

l_1852bccceb86d3be99bd809babc84ee0

Dum Dum Girls have a real great sound and are based in L.A., which I always love to hear.

They’re easily compared to Vivian Girls, for better or for worse – I love both groups but wish that every time a girl group came along they weren’t muttered in the same breath as one another just because of female vocals. DDG is far more lofi/dirty and doesn’t have the same emphasis on vocal harmony as VG, although the groups are undeniably similar in stylistic choice/aesthetic.

Anyway enjoy this track, which is a lot of fun. I also really dig that Dum Dum Girls is fronted by a librarian (via GvB).
