Random summer album #4

April March
Chrominance Decoder
(1999)
I freaking love April March! Oddly enough, it wasn't through a movie or TV show that I discovered her music; it was through a Shibuya-kei dedicated internet radio station. That should put into perspective what kind of music you are in for here. Bubblegum pop in the sweet spot between Pizzicato Five and Serge Gainsbourg.

random summer album #3


The Ventures
Surfing
(1968)
Getting as roots as I can this week. As you can see, this is an old album, so it's classic "surf rock". You should know exactly what you are getting into here.

Random Summer Album - #2

Cornelius
The First Question Award
(1994)
This is Cornelius' first solo album, before he became the electronic art sensation he is known for today. Resembling more of his freshly ended band, Flipper's Guitar, this is my favorite Cornelius album; despite it not objectively being his best.

Random summer album - #1


The Hi-Fives
Welcome To My Mind
(1995)
A Lookout Records (RIP) classic. Every Hi-Fives album sounds the same - that being a totally fun mod-surf party. This was their first, and it's a total blast.
