Yeah, just yesterday I fully immersed myself in the Teen album and it is luscious.
Yay! Really hoping this takes off on here. I'm listening to it every day at the moment.
keep listening to this addictive quirky rhythmic art-pop Prince Rama track on repeat, there is a Kate Bush vibe to the vocals.
This is also great. Same label too (Carpark)

RONiiA (pronounced Row-nee-a) is Nona Marie Invie (Dark Dark Dark), Mark McGee (Father You See Queen, Marijuana Deathsquads) and Fletcher Barnhill (Joint Custody, FUGITIVE). Together they produce a mysterious world full of departure, rejection, and love made from dark beats and scuffed up synths. Electronic music that is stripped of its gloss, as wildly innovative as it is original.

Ha! All I ever knew about her is that she refused to appear on the MTV show, so I don't think I've ever seen what she looks like.

Haven't formed an opinion yet about the Slovenlie track.

Probably not anymore, if you want it.

I never learned what a rangleklod is. I always assumed it was some obscure implement for animal husbandry, or perhaps a festival shoe.

I'm really digging this Prince Rama album so far. Sounds totally different to the stuff I heard from them before, which was very very post-AC chillwave.

Perhaps better suited for the Not House Not R&B Shangri-La, but the vocals are wispy enough for an honorary mention here:

Oh shit, a full Cult Club album just popped up on Spotify today. I had no idea it was even coming.
― Ⓓⓡ. (Johnny Fever), Wednesday, 1 June 2016 13:47 (eight years ago) link
that Kristin Kontrol album is an absolute joy, the perfect intersection of so many different things I love.
― boxedjoy, Saturday, 4 June 2016 08:56 (eight years ago) link
The Kristin Kontrol album reminds me of CRJ's Emotion in that the opening track is so mind blowing that the rest of the album, while uniformly excellent, cannot help but feel like a bit of a letdown in its inability to ever match the opener.

The Eefje de Visser album is very good, though Scheef is the standout imo.

Just came to post about the Cult Club album but I see JF beat me to it by a few weeks. I've been checking in on Cult Club every couple of months to see if they were up to anything and was surprised tonight to see an album was out. Sounds great so far. For those who don't do Spotify, it's a free download (if you give up your email) in any digital format from their label's Bandcamp:
https://domestica.bandcamp.com/album/cult-club-play-with-lies-2016-ref-dom07-s
Would love to have this and the 12" on vinyl but coming in at over $50 with shipping from Spain I'll have to be content with the free download.
― early rejecter, Thursday, 23 June 2016 03:55 (eight years ago) link
The Men I Trust album from last year was one of my silent favorites, so I'm glad they're staying active. The bass work in this is phenomenal.
