Blackbird Blackbird



A symphony of glitchy, dreamy, compression-ridden tracks consumes the music of Blackbird Blackbird. This genius comes from the 23 year old solo vocalist/producer Mike Maramag. His sounds travel a brightened path of psychedelia, chill wave and dream pop. Blackbird Blackbird recently signed to Arcade Sound Ltd. joining the likes of Memoryhouse and Millionyoung. Video of 'Pure' along with some other goodies (free downloads) below. Enjoy.

Therapies Son - Touching Down

Now this is what this site is all about. Therapies Son is 19 year old Californian Alex Jacobs whose debut EP Over The Sea is due to be released sometime this March. His music is a very soothing piano-driven psych pop. Video for his track "Touching Down" below, synced to what looks like mainly movie footage, including some from 2001: A Space Odyssey which makes sense considering the track title and lyrical content. I think I am in love with it because the piano portion reminds me of a gentler, slower, more emotional version of a track released by Josh Homme's The Desert Sessions, the song "I Wanna Make It Wit'Chu" off of Volume 9/10 but the songs are not really all that similar..i dunno. But you will love this if you are into psych-alt-country-folk outfit Cotton Jones as well as dreampop group Beach House. Very pleasant music, can't wait for the EP.
