next up is a mesmerizing, minimal wave-tinged, indie rock track Black Hills from Santa Barbara based indie/synth-pop outfit Gardens & Villas off their forthcoming self-titled debut album "Gardens & Villas" (2011).
Black Hills is an epic nostalgic-tinged track, deftly combining 80s minimal wave coolness et industrial beats, with the smooth, warmth et soulful harmonies of early 80s Californian "classic" pop/rock, the result is an infectious, well crafted track. the hypnotic synth melody is reminiscent of French minimal wave band Ruth's classic track Polaroid/Roman Photo. trust me, this track will stick in your head long after the fade out, enjoy!
MP3: Black Hills
check out the cool music video for Black Hills directed by Ulysses///Onasis. it is like a "B" grade kids movie, an amalgamation of "E.T" & "Stand By Me", with great use of rear projection.
