"Pointless Grove"
Gabe Schray - Corrected Follies LP
Excited to get the chance to properly share Gabe's amazing work with everyone. He's been putting out super limited CD-Rs pretty much every year, and a few of us here in Akron and Cleveland usually get a chance to grab a copy before he loses the master and lets the whole thing disappear. Now we've managed to find a dozen highlights from those albums and get them mastered and onto a nice limited edition LP.
It's kinda tough to describe Gabe's instrumentals, since they exist outside of any current trends... a bit of King Tubby style dub + 80's Sakamoto synth-pop... sometimes it makes me think of Tortoise as teenagers, if that makes any sense at all. Coooool

Comfort Clouds - The Dinner Set CD
The debut album from the soft pop band previously known as
Dinomania. Bossa nova rhythms, deep reverb drones, jazz chords,
smooth woodwinds, and dreaming about weekends...
Steely Dan with some post-9/11 experimentation... I don't know how to
describe this, it's weird and not weird and really really good.
