A new album review from Roberto Mandolini is in this months edition of Rockerilla magazine.Thank you! "A work divided in half: in the first part, the 'usual' fusion of exotic atmospheres stuffed dreamy sounds; in the second, a psychedelia that is always colorful but closer to jazz. NEW DIRECTIONS."

Big announcement: we're adding smell to zoom. People can smell you on zoom meetings now. We realize nobody asked for this but technological innovation knows no bounds

Chicago, baby.

Cant stop listening to Christopher Cross after watching that yacht rock doc.

We've been quiet, getting a few things ready for the new year, but here are some things to check out. Verdita has been added to the latest episode of Battery Operated by Mike Horn from Seawind of Battery. The album was also added to RCU's 2024 best of list recordcratesunited.com/2024/12/16/w...

Our latest album was featured in Record Crates' year-end roundup alongside several other notable releases.

The first review came in last week from Nick at Third Eye Psych Rock blog. "this mysterious trio mixes downtempo psychedelic, Polynesian tropical loops, and ambient country—a spicy blend that will bring some hazy sunshine to cure your seasonal depression. " thirdeyepsychrock.blog/2024/11/24/n...
