lazy sunday

a slightly different playlist. lazy sunday post. here we go.

maybe I've underrated Chonchit Wurst, but this song is a great atmospheric R&B song.
"see me off and I say goodbye" 


I really enjoy the interplay between the bass drums and the vocals...
"higher than a motherfucker, dreaming of it"


Oh, how great is this synthie hookline and the scratchy voice.
"how dare you!"


just atmospheric synthie pop. better listen to it loud...
"feeling out of place without you"

LAsmartClub2: the quiet before XmasN8















5 years ago exactly to the day following words seemed predestinated than ever. therefore we lower down our melancholic sound level to a further nuance in any case...
"late bitterly cold the sun has been lost its luster long ago however our affecting voluptuous soundscapes come with homelike warmth and with all my heart somehow weightless pending like snow". subtle. secret. silent.

LAsmartClub: 16 december 2 remember


in ear folks,

after 2 and more road to nowhere years - and that`s been way too long in truth - we rallied back into seismographic ear epicenters by trying to retrieve our sound paths with passion occasionally. days dawning, horizons crawling but we'll rise and fall just like the setting sun. newbies, oldies, goldies...

this is the comeback: Blankenship

After a long time of abstinence it's time to bring some life back to this blog. 
That said, I'd like to share with you the single from DIIV called Blankenship. The band has released their third album "Deceiver" on october 4th 2019. Blankenship is - to my opinion - the best song of "Deceiver" and by the way a smashing protest song. But listen for yourself. 


Armageddon is a product
And one we choose to buy
Dwell on that for a moment
With paradise on fire

I guess it's all the way
Blankenship 
Children lead the cry
You sold them all away
Blankenship 
With thirty years of lies
