…and we here at DOUBLE PHELIX OFFICE continue with summer jam rollout ‘12….but lets be honest who thought when these walkmen came out (wow, this indie is clear w/ aesthetic and seems connected to the greats of yesteryear) would have continually focused in on that vibe and honed continually making the old, familiar subconsciular new again! CHEERS TO THEIR NEW SINGLE! SUMMER JAM

*PREVIEW ‘NOSTALGIA THE COUNTRY’ by PHOTOGRAPHERS*
ambient-folk-duo, Photographers, are releasing their LP, Nostalgia the Country, later in this, the 2012th year of our Lord. I hope it gets released sooner than later, because this music fits snugly with the weather outside us northerners’ windows. Frosty-ambient-atmospherics coupled with crystal-high harmonies courtesy of John Hanson and Maren Celest, the aforementioned duo. These are the right chords, the right words, the right instrumentation that fits a consistent mood and it permeates the record: BAROQUE INVIERNO, terse invitations, sullen warmth….and yes it is mood/trance music: it invites trance b/c it is smartly-crafted—we have the lows (blowy bass drums) and mids (arpeggiated strings with fun baroque-chords) and highs (vox and glocks, all day, baby). In short, it feels good, which in my book, is numero uno. I don’t “do” ratings, but if I did, this is getting MAD PROPS!!!
Dig on “Jack Frost,” off Nostalgia the Country
