This is my first post, so iām gonna keep it short and sweet: Distinct, electronic music is my jam rn. And mr. stone has my calling card. Slowed, warped samples covered in sheets of effects and synths rising and fallinā¦. One track even sound like a Philip Glass+Kraftwerk combo. The album touches on such a specific nostalgia, or longing feeling. Itās hard to describe. The title āMomā fits perfect for the feelingā¦ Childlike, yet forlorn. Lovely from beginning to end. (His newer album Stolen Car is also a fun listen if you enjoy this.)

Only one album out rn (The Moviegoer), yes this is my husbandās music project! I play on it too now and more coming soon :))) if youāre in LA (or anywhere) keep an eye out on our instaā weāre playing more and more shows and some shows in NY and hopefully Manchester on the map too!!
āIntroducing a revisionist exotica for these timesā¦aquatic synths & drum machines, slide guitars & santoors, stray trumpets and accordion...ethno-industrial, dub, and samples from a fifty-year old suitcase of cassettes...
The major catalyst was a suitcase of twenty cassettes my father unearthed from his teenage years in Iran, recorded between 1972-1975, taping DJ monologues off the radio, lines of movie dialogue off the TV, radio plays, spoken word translations of European pop...
That made it a kind of excavation of a bygone time, a travelogue to a place accessed only through cultural artifact & collective memory. An imaginary soundtrack to a half-remembered movie from a faraway place.ā

Iāve been maintaining a looong playlist spanning jazz, folk, ambient, r&b/doo-wop, shoegaze, soundtrack scores and more, Iām sure. The main theme is imagining tracks that would sound good in an empty old dusty bar, or maybe walking along a foggy river bank on a still night. Sonically, Iām aiming for interesting textures, catchy melodies, or sparse production. Throw it on shuffle and see what catches yr ear.
Sampler of artists: Mary Lattimore, Eno/Fripp, Cassandra Jenkins, Harry Nilsson, Beach House āØ

Hyper modern production, with a lofi vocal approach. The dude is singing out of tune like 90 percent of the timeā¦. But thatās what makes this work. Itās not the note thatās working here, itās his nakedness and rawness in each track that grabs u by the guts and pulls u in. The standout track for me is āAloneā. What a wonderfully creative musician āŗļø.
i wanna give him a hug or something.
