Volunteer Department – “Cows of Tomorrow”
Cows of Tomorrow by Volunteer Department, Heaven Honey Volunteer Department has a deep back catalog of works stretching to at least 2017. The recent singles “Robert Downey, Jr.” and “Shitten” seem to denote a new era for the project. These tracks are clearly related to the prior releases but they contain a tighter production, a […]
SONATORE – “I’M A GH_ST” (Official Video)
For the uninitiated, Sonatore is a self-described “digital avatar” – a bend of an art project that mixes vintage aesthetics, analog photography and original musical compositions as an online entity. They often perform in a veil, a way of obfuscating themselves from reality and, from what we’ve heard of the music thus far, contextualizing the […]

Future Crib – “Most Likely Never Going to Die”
Full Time Smile by Future Crib Short review extracted from our July 6th Open Tabs Rundown of recent releases. Little fun fact for you: Future Crib released an album in 2019 entitled Friends and the title track is a highly overlooked gem. That’s a subjective take so maybe “fact” isn’t the right word to use […]
Kentucky Derby Con Man – Kentucky Derby Con Man
Kentucky Derby Con Man by Kentucky Derby Con Man Short review extracted from our July 6th Open Tabs Rundown of recent releases. Self-described as “experimental shoegaze,” Kentucky Derby Con Man is a somewhat new outfit around town and their debut, self-titled, EP delivers on that promise. The five song release is a big wall of […]
New Bang – “Mystic Grind”
Mystic Grind by New Bang Short review extracted from our July 6th Open Tabs Rundown of recent releases. Occasionally you run across something on Bandcamp that defies all logic. In the case of New Bang, we seem to have stumbled upon the first single from a forthcoming release entitled Ultimate Tiki Beach Breaks, which promises […]
Wilby – translucent beauty
translucent beauty by wilby Short review extracted from our July 6th Open Tabs Rundown of recent releases. Wilby caught our ear with a random single released in the fall of 2020 entitled “Bad” and followed up this Spring with a series of singles including “Mush,” “Joanna” and “Translucent Beauty” – all of which we unabashedly […]
Dee $ouf – “Fried Rice” (Official Video)
Short review extracted from our July 6th Open Tabs Rundown of recent releases. If you missed the Dee $ouf 2020 release The Jake Gittes EP or his numerous singles, you’ve got time to catch up before the release of his new tape Eagles Don’t Soar With Pigeons. The first track from said forthcoming release, “Fried […]
