Being that my typical night consists of hitting the sack at around 10pm, and that my new radio show is Friday nights from 10pm to midnight, I figured that my second show would center around the theme of sleep . So I pieced together a playlist of bedroom pop, chill wave, dreamy shoegaze and what I've dubbed as psychedelic ambiance. I took over for Stuarto just after 10 with a brief description of my first track, which I don't believe made it on air. The switch-over was a bit rushed [...]
Gabriel Miller-Phillips creates pleasant pop-based folk rock on his new album, One For The Crow . On one end is full and vibrant sound based on steady pop hooks, while the other is softer and more subdued. Per the latter, Miller-Phillips has fully mastered the ability to craft powerful folk ballads; chalk it up part to working on the album in isolation and part to working with Alex Lipsen (Phosphorescent) to record the album.

As you may or may not know, I tend to run with a wild bunch of hooligans, known for crazy antics like starting bands at the drop of a hat and impromptu cover songs, fueled by whiskey and cheap hot dogs, performed under the cover of night in the dark recesses of this city... though most notoriously there is a habit of working in secret for months to create tribute albums for people's birthdays, and there sure is plenty of proof that such accusations are true.
