Weather Pending’s album And How!
is a dreamy and imaginative collection of soothing and beautifully delivered sound that melts into your inner core and transports you into a world where only good things happen. Just imagine biting into a chocolate bar when you were a kid and that’s exactly the same feeling you’ll get when you listen. The San Fransisco based trio delivers a wide mix of styles ranging from dub, electronic, hip hop, and reggae. If you were wondering how they achieved such a rich warm sound, it’s all thanks to the wonders of recording live to 2 inch analog tape. Highly Recommended.
“Another Day”

from the album The Bass Has Left the Building

Hare Krisna
is off the group’s latest album Radio Retaliation
with tracks that carry politically charged content. But that doesn’t mean the songs will make you want to break things. Woo-sah….
Have a listen.
