RIYL - 80's / early 90's Shoegaze, Portishead, Julee Cruise, whispery girl vocals, M83
Son of a....yet another record that slipped passed me upon its release late last year. This record was practically made for me- electronic shoegaze with breathy female vocals by none other than Julee Cruise (Of Twin Peaks "Falling" fame) as well as Julia Hummer and Jutta Koether who share occasional vocal duties.
This is a lush less threatening version of M83's sonic elegance with the addition of ethereal vocals on nearly every track and it is a genuinely gorgeous record.
If I had to measure this record's worth according to the Richter Scale it would be defined as major.
the grammar police sez: it's "Julee"
