The Japanese House – Saw You In A Dream (2017)

Context - getting official stamps on some letters You know, like you do. This album seems to have nothing to do with Japan or houses, but it is otherwise enjoyable.  Very much a dream-pop act, I'd put them on tour... Continue Reading →

VÉRITÉ – Somewhere In Between (2017)

Context - slack-a-yackin You'd think that with the additional free time that summer affords due to the slow down at work and longer days that I would be able to crank these out more efficiently, providing more depth and perspective... Continue Reading →

Vince Staples – Big Fish Theory (2017)

Context - emails Everyday Vince Staples releases new music is a good day.  I've been hypin' on this guy since I first heard "Norf Norf", my mind being blown by what I later read described as "whale noise" production, along... Continue Reading →

The King and I Soundtrack (2017)

Context - the live show Ok so it wasn't really a soundtrack, I just went to see The King and I with my wife because that's how we do. Compared to other musicals I've seen, this is most "musicaly" musical I've... Continue Reading →
