Progress Bakery by Eliza Niemi features adventurous, genre-defying songwriting, prominent alto vocals, cello arrangements, and a shimmering low end. Phonetics by Horsegirl celebrates girlhood and friendship with an unpretentious, free, winter-tinged tone. Last Leg of the Human Table by Cloakroom delivers heavy, comforting sonics with glued-in vocal production and dense instrumentation. Live at Revolution Hall by Adrianne Lenker employs tape textures and collage-style mixing to create an immersive room presence. Sounds Like... by Florry evokes loose, backyard-party summer vibes. Singapore Dreaming by Subsonic Eye offers jangly, catchy psych-tinged rock. Ratboys plan Singin' to an Empty Chair for February, already sharing three singles.
"Cloakroom - Last Leg of the Human Table - Feb 28 - So heavy and comforting. I love the production on the vocals, they sound so glued in with the rest of the instruments. Hearing the singles got us really excited to record in Studio B at Electrical Audio! Eliza Niemi - Progress Bakery - Mar 21 - My favorite record of the year, the one I've returned to the most. These songs are filled to the brim with original, adventurous ideas; they're unbound by genre concerns and somehow fit so well together. Shout out alto vocals and the cello! Low end that shimmers. Can't recommend this album enough."
"Adrianne Lenker - Live at Revolution Hall - April 24 - This is the first live record to stop me in my tracks in a long time. I love all of the tape textures and the collage approach to mixing. I feel like I'm everywhere in the room. Florry - Sounds Like... - May 23 - So loose, so fun, sounds like the best backyard party of your life. Sit on the porch and slide right into summer. Subsonic Eye - Singapore Dreaming - Jun 11 - Super jangly, super catchy psych-tinged rock"
