you are by far one of my favorite artist I have found on here... so beautiful.

San Francisco’s Loveshadow @loveshadowdjs is a dance collective / music project between Anya and Izaak, two bay natives whose underground paths have dotted across the bay, Philadelphia, Chicago and Detroit, eventually landing in Oakland where their origin story finds them crossing paths working together at the former local Perch cafe. A shared love of a track by Aurra heard through the radio at the cafe becomes the catalyst that would eventually lead to their musical world building drawing from emotive sophisto-pop fused with balearic jazz and funk; through Anya’s vocal and songwriting set against the backdrop of Izaak’s productions. This has transpired through countless DJ sets that span across Fault Radio, Seance Center, NTS, Beyond / Below, among others, a release through Portage Garage Sounds with friend Ryan Spencer entitled S Transporter and their new Music For Memory self titled release.

As the year culminates, we are guided by Loveshadow delivering two hours of pure cosmic subterranean energy. Mining otherworldly realms imbued with esoteric atmospheres, they extract on the more offbeat offerings of jazz, post punk, dub, dark wave synth pop, and all the delightful intersectional sonic layers that can be found in between. A listening party that mystifies and opens portals into an unknown tomorrow.

Cobbled from recordings of raves circa '92 Wears House is both a mixtape and 14 revisionist originals. Capulet is filter-house through the looking glass of hoover subs and black lights. Please enjoy the moves.

Capulet

This is repetitive, but my mom says it's repetitive as water droplets. She said that as a compliment, so to me, that justifies uploading this. Jesse, I hope you like. The guitars are both broken, so I recorded this acapella. The effect I used fucked up some of the "s" sounds, but oh well, it's garage band. 
Thanks for listening.

See ya in 30 days
Leaving for another boat trip
It's okay, I'll steer away
Steer away from mysterious ghost ships

I've waited much too long for this
Family and friends I will miss
But we'll be much better off with
Salt Water and whiskey and bliss...

Sunlight dips into the ocean 
Darkness grows much faster each day
We increase our dosage of sailing
The glowing moon becomes out prey

Water laps against our black boat...
I forgot how to use these ropes
And I'm out of Fresh water! Oh, no
And I'm fresh out of sober hope

What are we thinking? 
Our absence is swallowing us whole!
This is no Ocean... I'm sorry I've trapped us in this bowl!

NTS – Doing Time w/ Asger Behncke

To celebrate our collaboration with Henry Jones (Smiling C / Further Steps) we joined forces on a mix that explores our shared interests in off-beat drum machine soul, instrumental g-funk, vernacular house, balearic IDM, and weird wave. Melodious Signals is the inaugural trip in a planned series of voyages down these outlying pathways. We couldn't be happier about working with Henry, and we're cooking up a lot of projects together that we can't wait to share.
