Vibe check: Passed. 🎧 New music recommendation via @etherdiver.bsky.social for the ambient jazz lovers.

Taking "Up 3am" by Very Late Relics into deeper digital territory. 🎷🌌 Version edit—dialing up the horizontal data-mosh and color-strobe to match that late-night sensory overload. #VeryLateRelics #DigitalArt #Vibe #Up3am

Enjoy the #gif s being on.

May your week be as instrumental for good and beauty as this entire Mono album.

Cooking through the morning. #Spiritualized

A glimpse into the atmosphere of "1998." 🌌 We’re currently deep in the edit for the official video. It’s still a work in progress, but we couldn't wait to show you a piece of what’s on the horizon. Listen to the track here: verylaterelics.bandcamp.com/track/1998

1/2 Extremely proud to have OURORA featured by @etherdiver.bsky.social today. “Chilled out, lo-fi ambient jazz... a real melancholic air.” It’s #BandcampFriday—grab the album or a track and support independent music: #VeryLateRelics #NewMusic #AmbientJazz

The wait is over. OURORA is officially out. It’s Bandcamp Friday—they’re waiving fees today, so 100% of your support goes directly to the artist. If you’ve been waiting to dive in, now is the time. Listen, support and share the music: #VeryLateRelics #OURORA #BandcampFriday

Tomorrow is Bandcamp Friday. I’ll be around sharing some stories behind the album. If you’ve been meaning to grab a digital copy, tomorrow is the best day to support us directly. #instrumentrepair #bandcampfriday

Digging through the project files for our song 'Cov' today. It’s wild seeing the literal building blocks of a song that’s already out in the world. Bar 97 still feels like the heart of this one for us. #musicsky #wallofsound #bandcamp

Here’s what’s up. #weirdcore #dreamcore

I (Allan here) made this horrible poster about a year ago during an initial explore of what Very Late Relics could look like. It was way before I was introduced to our current designer, the indispensable Sean Moran of Art of Bliss. Amazing things can happen when you just let go.

@tapeopmagazine.bsky.social My happy place has arrived yet again. 🎧🎙️

Ritual: The best way to hear this record is in the dark, start to finish. No shuffling allowed. 🎧 Alternate artwork by Sean Moran, for the Very Late Relics debut release OURORA. verylaterelics.bandcamp.com/album/ourora

Twice today my 6yr old has shoved coins inside and up/under the keys of my 9yr old’s Loog keyboard. I did not expect to be using a screwdriver this much today while trying to write new music.

High-fidelity artifacts for low-light listening. 🌒 Everything we’ve built, recorded, and recovered is waiting for you on Bandcamp. Pick up a digital relic and keep the project moving forward. Listen deeply through the link in our profile bio, thanks 💋

Independent, and something for everyone 🩵

This is an example of a white whale. #Morley #EDL #VintageGear

If you didn’t catch this DJ Ritualist 3-Seconds-Long compilation we made an appearance on, check it out here ☝️👇

After the 47-second sprint of our first music video for the mini-song “Up 3am,” it’s time for something a bit more… expansive. Sean Moran just finished the intro/outro treatment for our next music video. We’re going deep. 🌬️🌑 #VeryLateRelics #NewMusic

Getting down to a classic this morning during the pancake hour. Cheers to our Bluesky community 🩵🎧🫠

Finally sharing a video piece of the new album. This is "Up 3am" from OURORA. 🎧We’re so excited to finally have this out in the world. Let us know what you think of the audio and visuals! #IndieMusic #MusicSky #OURORA

This track, "Stick's Theme," was our instrumental "breather" during those marathon 3-hour sets. It’s a rare moment where the rhythm section and horns got to stretch out while the rappers grabbed a drink. Total 90s vibes. 🎷🎸

Before we were the Very Late Relics, Ted and I were holding down the low end and the horn lines for Portland, Oregon’s 11-piece hip-hop powerhouse Five Fingers of Funk.

One of the best parts of Bluesky has been the discovery. I’ve been spinning @raudvik.bsky.social and @aquaerials.bsky.social all morning—absolute vibes.

It’s been really special seeing the response to the new music over the last few days. Reading your notes and seeing where these 10 songs are landing in your world means a lot to us.

It’s the calm before the cold. 🩵 If you're making a storm playlist, this track fits the 'gray sky' vibe perfectly.

Caught "1998" on KMHD during The Here and Now! Huge thanks to Bri Drennon for supporting local music on one of the best jazz stations out there. Portland pride is real today. #VeryLateRelics #KMHD #PDXJazz #CommunityRadio verylaterelics.bandcamp.com/track/1998

No notes.

Listening to Chamayou’s ‘Letter(s) to Erik Satie.’ It’s a conversation between Satie and Cage across time—hazy, minimalist, and deeply haunted.

Tonight’s focus is “Yeser,” the second track on the record. Since the album is sequenced in strict chronological order, this is where the listener starts to see the project’s evolution begin to take shape in real time. 1/3

Atmosphere > Genre. If you appreciate a deep, immersive soundscape that defies simple labels, you’ll find your new obsession in the debut Very Late Relics album, OURORA. #GenreFluid #NewMusic #Audiophile #Bandcamp #OregonMusic #PDX

Ourora’s first music video 🇮🇸 #Snæfellsnesvegur #VeryLateRelics

We built this album on the feeling of hindsight—a beautiful, quiet sadness. It’s electronic and organic music that makes you feel, not just move. Link in bio. #Melancholic #VeryLateRelics #Ourora #Jazzsky #Bandcamp #Water

Good stuff that is independently driven 🎶

Jazz isn't dead. It just learned how to use a synthesizer. We bring the improvisation and musicality of the club to the chill of the electronic sphere. OURORA, by Very Late Relics is out now. #Jazz #Saxophone #NewMusic #Bandcamp

Who wants to spend all day with us looking at old Winamp skins? skins.webamp.org

When you need the perfect soundtrack for a rainy midnight drive, but the destination is purely emotional. Listen to our debut collection of original compositions, OURORA – pure, melancholic ambience. #AmbientMusic #Downtempo #VeryLateRelics

This may be one of my favorite recording artist interviews ever. #AldousHarding #Interview signed - Allan

@bandcamp.com promoting your own music on Bandcamp can really help an artist discover their own depth rate. #LFO

Let’s all have as much fun as fellow Oregon recording artist @sangabrielmusic.bsky.social this year 🩵🤩

Periodic phase cancellation can be a mantra. 🪬

We took the warmth of an acoustic tenor saxophone and fused it with the cold pulse of electronic inspired sound design. The result: Very Late Relics. It’s the electronic fusion you’ve been waiting for. Hear OURORA now, only available on Bandcamp. 🎧 #jazzsky #musicsky #newmusic

This will be our year.
