Loving this melancholy beauty!

Help support @Roman_Holiday by donating whatever you can to get them on the road to the UK and across America. This is a band that is worth the investment. What’s in it for you? When they are huge you’ll look back and say, I helped them get there, and a lifetime of eargasms, of course. They are incredibly talented!

Check them out and help the cause.

WASHED OUT // Influences Mix (BBC Radio 6 Mix Series)

Ernest Greene of Washed Out put together a couple of mixes for the BBC Radio 6 Mix Series. One geared toward his influences and the other geared more toward music that he’s been listening to as of late. I really dig the influences mix as a lot of those songs are old favorites of mine as well. Song selections include DJ Shadow, 10cc, Boards of Canada, Bruce Hirdler and many more. Definitely worth a listen.

Check out the other mix at Abeano.
