New Tomodati: “All Juke”
Well, that is almost true. The always herky-jerky Tomodati certainly embraces juke music on his latest song, but he weaves in plenty of other elements too. For one, he approaches the jittery structure as pop, singing over the brisk beat like it is just another piece of music (bringing to mind another recent song). Yet…

Based on how they describe it — “chill&vapot-trap beats” — I was bracing for something like one of those YouTube mixes…
Weird Incantations: Sea Level’s “Race Against the Drum Machine”
Every element of Sea Level’s “Race Against the Drum Machine” feels stitched together into a really jarring patchwork. The group, split between Fukuoka and Tokyo, recently put out their debut full-length on Call And Response (get that here), and this advance peek stands as one of the more wobbly — and fun in its unsteadiness…
