It'd be awesome if we turned out to be related. Slapping Miley Cyrus in the face would be the highlight of my family reunions.

We are.

I seriously doubt your genes are contaminating my pool, dearie.

I was gonna say the same thing.

You'll just have to find another cousin to kiss.

Hiatus Kaiyote - Choose Your Weapon (2015)

You'd think these guys would be some deliciously weird EDM or metal band based on this album cover, but they're actually just spacey, gorgeous neo-soul from Australia with a hankerin' for sonic oddities here and there. Been digesting this one quite a while: hope they do another album someday.

The Rippingtons - Tourist In Paradise (1989)

Essential smooth / contemporary jazz. Very Weather Channel but pure ear candy after a long day. I've been a Rippingtons advocate for years now, but revisiting some of their most atmospheric work in 2017 is just unbelievably refreshing. They're pretty much the godfathers of vaporwave too!

This album is my **** right now, and I'm pretty sure won't be topped in 2017 whatsoever.

Genre: Experimental rock, Avant-prog, Avant-metal, Psych Metal, Psych Rock, Screamo, Dark Ambient, Electroacoustic, other wild stuff

That's pretty dank, the singer reminds me of Eric Wood, who kicks a lot of ass.

Never listened to him, but I'll check him out.

He's from Man is the Bastard.
