Seafoam-Sarah

If you’re familiar with the forerunners of the chillwave scene then chances are that you’ve heard the name John Jagos floating around. John is better known for making music under the alias Brothertiger but now shortly after his sophomore release Golden Years he’s back with something new. The name of his new project is called Seafoam and if you thought that it’d be the same material made under a different name then you’re mistaken. Instead the chillwave aspects are traded in for more of a dream pop sound that’s accompanied by a perfect amount of tropical ambiance. The self titled ep was just released today and you can grab it on bandcamp for $4. If you can’t buy it then be sure to pick up the track “Sarah” for free. 

Anymals-Kids Grow Better Under The Sun

Believe it or not youtube can be a great way to come across new music, despite all of the people who post videos trying to land their 15 minutes of fame. While I was recently watching the video for “Grand Lux” by Tours I discovered a chillwave artist from France who goes by the name of Anymals. Though Anymals only has one song posted on soundcloud right now it’s certainly a great start and “Kids Grow Better Under The Sun” has me eager to hear more. The track opens with warm synths and a funky bassline which help develop it into a bright, chillwave gem once more layers (including a loop of children laughing) come into play. With a wonderful feel good vibe, it’s very easy to relax to and in my opinion it couldn’t have come at a better time than the beginning of the summer season. Recommended for fans of The Pillars of Creation, Sloslylove, and Brothertiger.
