A great set of tunes beginning with the one and only, Youth Lagoon.

Emerging from the depths of Boise, Idaho in 2010, Youth Lagoon is a band that encapsulates the essence of introspection and nostalgia. Helmed by the enigmatic Trevor Powers, Youth Lagoon weaves together intricate layers of electronic textures, emotive lyrics, and poignant melodies.

The first two tracks on this mixtape are the first two tracks from his first album in eight years. The album is haunting, beautiful, delicate, disturbing, catchy, challenging, and an album no one else makes. It’s phenomenal and is my #1 Album of the Year thus far.

Some other great tracks, including the Deftones-like bdrmm and a fantastic singer-songwriter, dv4d.

That last voice you hear is the lead singer from Fontaines DC’ solo album.
