I'm Just A Woman - El Tee

A cover of a Sharon Van Etten tune. A song about separation and endings.

Give Out - Sharon Van Etten

Covers

One Day (Sharon Van Etten Cover)

Porcelain Doll

lyrics: 
when all we see is difference between us
will we ever stop this endless war? 
could we see past the fear 
hold each other still 
could we try and understand the other a little more? 

or will the bombs explode? 
dust settle cold 
and still on these broken homes 
cold and still 

if you can't look into my eyes 
'cause all you see is blue, red, black, white 
fight or flight 
fear of each other 
can we ever learn to trust one another? 

or will the bombs explode? 
dust settle cold 
and still on these broken homes 
cold and still 

the thing is we've been here before 
all it ever did was start an endless war 
of guilt, death, indoctrination steps, 
learning and unlearning 
and just trying to pay of debt 
of murder of nations 
entire populations 
of races, of lives 
shattered a thousand times for what? 
can we just stop? 


or will the bombs explode? 
dust settle cold 
and still on these broken homes 
cold and still 

(backing vocals)
round and round and round we go 
round and round and round we go 
until we stop 
until we say no 
round and round and round and round

Bombs

Thought I was dying hanging there only half awake 
Tending to ghosts longer than it seemed 
Never knew ease as a given thing 
Thought I was losing when I wanted more 
These are unloving times to live but 
At the end of fear is a door 

The scenery shifts the act is unchanged 
But the scale does not feel the same
 I want to touch the ground, learn again 
How to move through unafraid 
In the dark through the flames 
Walk like I used to walk when
We knew less and we dared more  

There’s no lie in the pulse of your skin 
It’s been much and not enough 
There’s no lie, this life is for living 
Stand while you stand 
Love when you love 
Stand while you stand
Love when love 

Tried places and got tried in return 
Made space in my heart to unlearn 
I want to touch the ground, see it clear 
We came with senses so we can feel 

These are raving times to be alive
 There’s a breath we’re meant to find 
In the dark
 Through the flames 
So close to the surface 

There’s no lie in the pulse of your skin 
It’s been much and not enough 
There’s no lie, this life is for living 
Stand while you stand 
Love when you love

Unafraid

Seventeen - Demo

"Days Feeling It All" delves into the emotional complexity of a relationship that's slowly unraveling. The lyrics explore the silence and solitude shared between two people, with unspoken words and distant memories lingering in the background. There's a quiet vulnerability as the song reflects on the weight of what could have been, with feelings of regret and longing woven throughout. The melancholy undertones are matched by introspective melodies, creating a reflective and emotionally charged atmosphere. Fans of The National, Phoebe Bridgers, and Sufjan Stevens will resonate with the deep, soulful storytelling of "Days Feeling It All."

Moments of solitude, drifting apart
Our only embrace, the silence in the dark
As close as I would ever dare
Just about all my heart could bear

Reveal to me the words unsaid
Could they alter the path we've led?
In the space of who we are
Memories of what could be, a distant star

Days of embracing, feeling it all
To someday let go, break the fall
Shedding the burden of guilt and sorrow
Struggled to hold and borrow

In the hours apart, came to see
A name was all we shared, just you and me

"Days Feeling It All"  Written and Performed by Northern Sky

Days Feeling It All

Helpless - El Tee

Started out a little Hypno House and ended up with some Garage leading into Ellen Allien. Took some risks and they worked out. Always inspiring to play to the sunrise at Gelato Vero Caffe--one of my favorite places in San Diego. Lots of foot traffic and curiosity at what I was doing. I'll consider it a victory. This one was, again, a little faster in BPM than I usually stick to at our sister even Sublime Saturdays.

Be sure to catch us every Wednesday, from 7 - 9AM at Gelato Vero Caffe. Skip the gym, get your buzz downstairs, shake it down with us upstairs, and start the day right. The view will get you in a mood and prep you for your daily toil. If you enjoy the mix, please comment, like and share! Link to playlist in bio!

All tracks purchased in lossless quality. Also, if you like any of the tracks, we encourage you to buy them in lossless format and find a dark place to listen to it with a good sound system or a nice pair of headphones. These artists are giving us their soul so we can make it another day with that fleeting sense of inspiration; so be sure to buy their merch if you dig them and check out their shows/ events if you can!

Gelato Vero Rise Ritual 8 . 27 . 25

Highland Kites started as Los Angeles native Marissa Lamar's solo project, and was a way for her to deal with the aftermath of her beating a severe case of neurologic Lyme Disease, losing much of her earlier life in the process. Music was a way to deal with not  just the pain, but to help her heal and find a new purpose. 

Having never played or sung she started learning piano in 2014 at 26 and within 6 months played her first show. What started as just something to help her mind heal and give her an artistic outlet became an obsession and something she fell deeply  in love with. 

She shortly after met drummer, Neil Briggs through a mutual friend. Their musical styles were very different but the contrast created a sound that they both resonated with. 

They have since released 4 EPs, a full length album and a few singles, done 6 tours and over 100 shows. 

They're music has been described as "Hope Sandoval fronting Radiohead". They have a love for adding texture to songs, and creating dreamy landscapes around brutally honest and direct lyrics. 

They recently decided to leave Los Angeles and move to Nashville, TN. 

They released their latest EP "Better Off" in June 2019 via MGM Distribution. The two music videos they made (with Space Dream productions) off the EP have been making rounds in the festival circuit with multiple nominations and awards so far. 

They just finished 3 songs in the studio and will be releasing the first one (Two Halves) in Sept 2019.

Indie folk band based in Montpellier, France.

Northern Sky is a Detroit/London-based collaborative formed in 2021, crafting ethereal music that blends dreamy soundscapes with cinematic depth. Their music strikes a delicate balance between melody, emotion, and magic, influenced by timeless artists like Nick Drake and Norah Jones, as well as modern acts such as Beach House and The National.

At the heart of Northern Sky is Rose White, whose voice, like a soft breeze at twilight, guides the band’s sound with transcendent beauty. Supported by Eric Stajda, Dan Kendall, Steve Baker, and Andrea Di Fiore—who weave intricate layers of guitar, bass, drums, piano, synth, cello, and violin—the band creates soundscapes that are both fragile and infinite.

Northern Sky’s songs are vignettes, like postcards from distant places, carrying echoes of fleeting yet eternal memories. Tracks like "Paper Flowers," "Swimming in the Rain," and "Aurora" explore love, loss, and the bittersweet passage of time. Their music reflects the profound beauty found in life’s quietest moments, drawing inspiration from films that capture the magic in the everyday—Cinema Paradiso, Stolen Kisses, Sleepless Night in Paris, and Before Sunrise.

Northern Sky invites listeners to step into a world where music is not just heard, but felt deeply, offering a soundtrack for introspection, inspiration, and everything in between.

Bluebiird is the musical alias of singer/songwriter Emily Osment.

As the son of a professional flamenco singer, Thomas has always been surrounded by music.  Exposure to flamenco influenced him because it has a dynamic range of emotions—from the "deep singing" style of cante hondo, to the more lively alegrias.  He has also worked in the corporate, independent, and online music industry for a number of years.  At one point he was a Content Manager for the Electronic Music genre at MP3.com, where he screened over 500 songs per day.  Exposure to a wide range of music explains the range of genres in his mixes—he uses whatever carries the mood.  From listening to Umm Kulthum's "Enta Omri" in his childhood, to New Wave and  Industrial as a teen, it became difficult for him to stick to one sound. Though vinyl was his original format of choice when he started in the 90s, the use of digital mixing has helped him better form soundscapes to expand your headspace.  Let him play with your moods for a spell.
