Dizzy Dearest - Capture Me

Capture Me by Dizzy Dearest

Just recently got introduced to Dizzy Dearest (Lansing Area)'s music and I was truly floored. This track opens with woozily blissed out synths and the vocals and the rest of the instrumentation elevate the track higher and higher as the song progress like a kaleidoscopic strobing hot air balloon. Dizzy Dearest has a truly unique sound blending elements of dayglo folk, dream pop, shoegaze, and indie rock. Highly recommend checking everything on their soundcloud.

Also there's a new addition to the Mostly Pleasant staff! New blog posts will be accompanied by the amazing artwork of Lansing/Mount Pleasant based artistCassie McCarthy

Crash Sunday - 2 New Tunes

Crash Sunday - Mylar Ocean by Crash Sunday
Crash Sunday ft Joko - Sub-Atomic Mating Ritual by Crash Sunday

Here's two new tunes off of the Mostly Pleasant vol 1 compilation that we put out in February 2010. This stuff is way different from my previous releases; these are some of the 1st songs I did within the new genre Post-Aquarium.

Sub-Atomic Mating Ritual is a collabo with a new Mostly Pleasant producer called Joko a.k.a. Josh Kovitz. It's about sub-atomic particles fucking in a club. I recommend it.

At any rate, there's going to be a lot more shit coming out like this. Post-Aquarium has got your kids.

Coloreater + Image Over Being

"Sweet Sweat - Loft Loop"
"Sweet Sweat - Chant Voice, Sweat Drums"

Sweet Sweat is the collaboration between Ship Shaper and Coloreater Dom Fracasa and prolific experimental drummer and noise maker Image Over Being.

Coloreater - "Prickle Dripper"

"Coloreater - Prickle Dripper"

wowee. For those that don't know, Coloreater is the solo project of Dom from Ship Ship. He's always had some rad tunes and performances, but when "Prickle Dripper" debuted on 91.5's Indie Queens radio show the other night, we were all pretty floored. A bonified Post-Aquarium masterpiece, this track sets the bar pretty high. Plus it's phonetically confusing and I almost always want to call it pickle dripper or pickle dipper which is sooo vulgar. It's like the gift that keeps on giving.
