Marigold

by Mitchell Adam Johnson

Meowkeo I bought the vinyl on a whim a few years ago and it's one of my favorite albums now.

Love just turning it and letting it play in the background quietly on the weekend.

Harrison K This album is a beautiful puzzle box of secrets. The melodies, harmonies, lyrics, and instrumentation all wash over the listener in possibly the most bittersweet album of the 2010s Favorite track: Don't Try.

Noah Wilson It's like listening to a magic spell being cast in your bedroom as you drift asleep. Immense drama wrapped in breathtaking beauty. Favorite track: Through A Mood Indigo.

Maple Key
by Le SuperHomard

supported by 6 fans who also own “Marigold”

I will borrow a description from someone-"Le Super Homard are a blend of Broadcast and Stereolab". I think that is an apt description, but this is a fully realized band, not just a sum of parts. This appeared out of nowhere and is an amazingly fresh hot take. The music/vocals are dreamy, beat driven with splashes of sixties psych and lounge. No one is making this kind of music at the moment, and even if they did, they could not make it as great as Le Super Homard circular music
