Let's close out this Monday with some quality deep house. I kind of need it right now. It's Monday, after all. And the day's been a rough bit of a wash. So here goes ...I encountered "Reilstreet" while I was relaxing on the beach over the weekend. It didn't make yesterday's posts, so I decided …

Trans Atlantic Crush’s “Glitter and Gold”

Trans Atlantic Crush's 2018 album "Sea of Dreams," featuring the single "Glitter and Gold."

Okay, this one took me by surprise today. I was randomly checking out some bands I'd heard of, but had yet to hear. And then I found this wonderful little gem titled "Glitter and Gold" by the trio Trans Atlantic Crush. With this track, these guys really nail the '80s electronic synth-pop vibe, minus the …

And it was like being lulled into a softly cascading breeze of subconscious descent. "Let It Go" is from The Stargazer Lilies’ beautifully off-kilter 2017 album "Lost." This indie band from …

I heard The Cult’s early alternative rock classic “Revolution” in the car this morning. It really summed up how I’ve been feeling this entire week, especially with the upcoming election, as well as a number of other issues I’ve been managing.
