New Wallflower: Out To Sea
ByPatrick St. Michel May 26, 2015

It seemed like Osaka indie-pop outfit Wallflower were keeping quiet for a bit, but turns out they were just releasing individual songs across various different compilations over the last few months. Out To Sea collects four of those tracks into one place, and makes for a very cohesive EP. That’s thanks to the groups sound,…

New Salyu X Salyu: “Muse’ic”
ByPatrick St. Michel April 7, 2011

Turns out the Salyu-Cornelius project won’t be a rehash of Bjork’s Medulla.

New Boys Age: “Phantasm Gem”
ByPatrick St. Michel July 29, 2019

Call this one an uncomfortable chill. It has been a while since we’ve heard from Boys Age, but “Phantasm Gem” reminds that the project is still delivering one of the more off-kilter takes on chilled-out indie-realm sounds going. Their latest sashays along on a guitar melody close to the music you’d hear on Spongebob Squarepants,…
