the strokes - call it fate, call it karma {slowed & reverb}

She’s stuck in my head…

Lyrics:
Looking at you 
Lying in your room 

Don’t wanna leave 
This nice warm bed 
Wrapped around my brain 
Wrapped around my head 
Feels so good to have you here 
Feels so good to pull you near 
Feels like sun on my face 
Or in my rearview mirror 

The smell of nice fresh air 
When the world is dark 
It’s these tiny little things 
That heal my tiny broken heart 
Leaning into you 
Feel the bad and the good 
Never knowing just 
Why you’re so misunderstood

Romantic Purgatory

Souvlaki Space Station - slowdive (speed up)

A Shoegaze renaissance classic, first time on vinyl.

The shoegaze renaissance classic The Millia Pink And Green EP by Sway has influenced many a modern musician, shoegazer and non-shoegazer alike. Now, Saint Marie Records gives it the long awaited vinyl treatment. The record now weighs a bit more, thanks to the bonus track ‘Channel’ and its 180gm Coke bottle green transparent vinyl.

Sway began making noise in 1999, in Ventura, California. At the time, they were a four-piece garage rock outfit consisting of Andrew Saks, Amber Carlson, Seth Eubanks, and Vince Alatorre, playing shows and confusing audiences up and down the West Coast with its blurry wall of sound. They’re most known for the shoegaze renaissance classic The Millia Pink And Green EP released in 2003.

Andrew’s songwriting and sonic ideals are deeply rooted in the music he was surrounded by while coming of age: late ‘70s and ‘80s pop music.  Falling asleep nightly while listening to 1980s pop and R&B, and then waking up late at night in a dark dreamlike haze with New Order, Swing Out Sister, Talking Heads, Pet Shop Boys, Lisa Lisa and Cult Jam whispering through his Walkman’s headphones, the sonic memory of such experiences keep Sway from ever giving itself over fully to the traditional shoegaze elements. The quest to recreate these musical properties is what later led Sway to embrace and be further influenced by the blissful textures of dreampop visionaries such as The Cocteau Twins, Medicine, and My Bloody Valentine.

In 2011, This Was Tomorrow was released by Saint Marie Records.  It was Sway’s first full-length release and its last.

More people need to know about Have A Nice Life. This song is gorgeous, and if you haven't heard the original you should go listen to it right now.
Edit from 2022: Crazy to me that people are still listening to this lousy cover I did of a song I love from 7 years ago. Thanks for listening :)
