Lonelyspeck – Presence EP
This Lonelyspeck EP was a very pleasant surprise after it had been threatened over twitter for nigh on infinity now. The reverb skies have opened up on this release and the vocals are truly drenched to the skin but the vocals aren’t really the centerpiece to the track any more than the twinkling synth loops are. The vocal parts work on an instrumental level and contribute to a warm tableau of sound that’s enriched through a different set of sonic tones on each track. If you can imagine it, and readership, I know you can, it’s as if I’lls and Youth Lagoon collaborated and then asked Oscar to guest vocal on a few tracks and then they filtered his vocals into oblivion. End result is gorge town, which is a region not defined by its great valleys but its textural gorgeousness.
The EP is out right this very second and you can cop it for whatever price you please.
Chillwave shall rise again!
