we can shake but can’t control
One of my favorite reader/commenters Adam beat me to compiling a Springtime mix, so completely loaded with terrific songs from artists that I had not yet heard much of yet, but fit this nascent springtime glow I am feeling lately. I am reveling in his selections from folks like Hooded Fang, Lemolo, James McMorrow, New Animal, Andrew Belle, and Seryn.
The Seryn song he chose was instantly my favorite on the mix, because it builds up that same type of barely-contained, loosely chaotic joy inside me as that Matthew and The Atlas song did a few months back. Simply marvelous – take a listen.
