Tonight I decided to break my routine and enjoy a few beers while sitting outside, listening to music, under the moon. I stumbled on these guys (suddenly I don’t think that cos name is so bad now)… While I don’t like all of their music I must have listened to this song out there five or six times - maybe more. The arpeggiated synth twirls. The clean guitar that comes in - can't tell if it's playing octaves or single notes (C-G/A-F/E)... And then that guitar with a descent amount of plate(?) reverb, kind of reminiscent of 60's spaghetti westerns or something on a Lee Hazelwood song, that comes in at 3:38. Just so good and tasteful. And so smooth. This just straight up resonated with my very being - as if it mirrored my soul or something. Just a great example of how simple layers can add up and make something beautiful.

Just thought I'd share. While popular music is full of absolute trash, from mumble rap to some record label people or "producers" writing material for popstars (Taylor Swift anyone), there is good music out there still lurking under the surface.
