Hello all! I hope everything is well. Just a quicky update on a few things I've been enjoying lately.

Two Bicycles

He's Post Folk! Is that an actual genre? Probably not. I just use it to describe artists like Balmorhea, Emphemetry, and this man too. He has 3 releases to his name. My personal favorite is The Holy Forest. He treats the vocals so beautifully, it adds an entirely different facet to his sound. The other two he has are good, don't get me wrong, but if you're gonna get anything from him you MUST get The Holy Forest.

And if you're into lo-fi sounding retro-ish dancey music... stuff, then you can check out his other project Teen Daze. I'm not a huge fan, but maybe some of you will get something out of it. It's a shame too, because some of the songs sound incredible at certain passages (and even some entire ones), but then get ruined by corny synth melodies and such.

Moombahton

GET ON TO DA DANCEFLOOOOR. It's a new genre kids. It's big. Diplo, Skrillex, and Laidback Luke are all playing the shit out of it. It's massive. Think Reggaeton/Dutch House, slowed down to around 108 bpm. It's danceable and features intensely infectious melodies and tribal sounds. Do it up friends.
