« Sans Viande – Extra Light Cocooning » is an album that was recorded in 2009. It was brought out of archives & finalized in 2016. Featuring Sam Drouin (Qz45, Rotting Ebitan, Classic UFO Hunter) & Marie-Pascale Hardy (Paco Sala), it’s the perfect lo-fi experimental music for the grey, dark & rainy days of autumn & the inevitable harsh winter that is coming our way.

I feel like there's been an absence of strong post-punk and new wave these past several months. I could be just looking in all the wrong places, but luckily I stumbling upon Los Angeles based Ballerina Black's killer new track, "Brixton Rain". The track hits all of the check marks for what i've been looking for - crisp post punk rhythms, dark synth lines, eerie atmospherics, and a melody that gets lodged in your head for days. In some ways it sounds like the kind of song that could appear on a late 80's episode of 120 Minutes, but that's not to say that it's a rehash of familiar goth pop tropes. Ballerina Black capture that lost era with absolute confidence, and imbue their work with a new pulse that feels alive and exciting. I need more sounds like this in my life. Right now. Highest recommendation.
