Sleepytime Mixtape Project: 5 & 6
Hopefully you guys liked yesterdays tracks, but really, how could you not? Today's songs both happen to be of the softer, dreamier type. I'm working right now on some super sweet art for the end, I'm pretty pleased with it so far. Here are the songs, Enjoy.
5. [MP3]: The Very Hush Hush :: That Look
This song was sent to me quite a while ago by a friend and it's one of those songs that just grabs you and won't let you go. As soon as the vocals come in you're hooked and you just get lost in a blind stare, at least that's always been the case with me. The only escape from this song, is falling asleep, because you can't turn it off, it won't let you. I'm also pretty convinced that this song would be very fitting in a movie where a guy or girl gets their heart broken. And after the "heartbreaking" they're driving home and it's dark out and the road is wet from rain and twinkly and this song is playing in the car. I demand all credit if that ever happens.
6. [MP3]: Ugly Casanova :: Hotcha Girls
This song isn'y near as etheral as the song just above it, but what it lacks in surreal dreamscape points, it makes up in melody. Isaac Brock's beatiful and flawless guitar picked arpeggios always remind seem to remind me of "Street Spirit (Fade Out)" by Radiohead and I almost put this song on the same level of that song. Everything seems to fall into place over the course of the song, between the double tracked vocals in the chorus and when the snare drum falls in at the end, it's all just perfect.
