June 2018, a "magnificent 7" playlist

New Yorkers Bloom Waves fly a bit under the radars. A shame as they have released gems after gems. This is one of them.

NEIV, a band from the Alps (Switzerland), say they love mountains, animals, the rainy mornings, the emotions and the reverb. In their new album, it shows!

Andy Jossi new song is a gem, as usual. Released under the Blue Herons project name, it brings you into a perfect djangle world, with Thierry's Haliniak's voice and lyrics a delight.

This song from  Soft Science (Sacramento, California) reminds me so much of a band I played with in 90's, Lighthouse (very difficult to find ...). A superb mix of Shoegaze, electro and Dream Pop with Lush-like voices. Love it!

A nice bitter-sweet ballade, Rock, Indie & Shoegaze from the Californians of Winter. Loads of other indie gems in the LP.

A new young band from Sweden. Their music is on the 90s indie rock scene. Imagine the Pixies mixed with some more classic rock. And where the karezza is the slow building of tension (look it up), the Karezza (the band) music is a total release of energy.

And now from the infamous Salem, USA, Virgin Daydream lo-fi indie pop. Very relaxing and low-key ... though the lyrics are more on the dark side.
