Stadiums & Shrines

It appears, based on this nocturnal battle cry (in the great pop gravity wars), that Ricky Eat Acid is not coming down, at least not for these nine minutes; he’d rather free-float in the darkness of nothing, as if still holding those balloons first seen over a year ago, now well past the atmosphere, on a slow, dial-toned course, further away:

Ricky Eat Acid | So I Will Not Fall Deep Into The Earth

Sam posted the track to bandcamp in the wee hours of last night, complete with handmade artwork and a space-punk manifesto.

 

Serious, back to the grass, cerebral research going on right here. Deep in a bed of swirling atoms and soft watercolors, the triumphantly titled “Oooooompha!” is inviting to say the least, and really just the first motion of textured drone from Primeira Vez:

Branches | Oooooompha!
Branches | Pré-Natal

The release is available through Triple You Tapes. And simultaneously, Branches has another other tape happening with Solid Melts, which also got some self-made visuals today.

Last day-trip with Acid Glasses ended in a mess of environmentally unsafe waves, and now these shades get even more disorienting indoors; the walls aren’t even flat at this point, the words are coming out all wrong, and the whole peripheral tint’s been covered in lightning bolts and a parental advisory sticker:

Acid Glasses | Linen Wall
Len | Steal My Sunshine (Acid Glasses Remix)

“Linen Wall” is the latest from AG (while the latter just felt right).

Previously heard “SUMMER YOU” flashed back to a lake scene in full color. Now with a collection to contextually place it in, we learn that those levels were fleeting. Relay, Gabriel White’s debut album, goes in and out of saturation, as though seasonal, like those instances where everything—the gold of an afternoon, or the rose of her smile—seems brighter than normal. Note the contrast when jumping from its gray starting line, and landing at its vibrant finish:

Gabriel White | How Are You
Gabriel White | Over Time In Time

Get the entire gradient (as of today) through AMDISCS.
