At the end of the month, just in time for your summer holidays, Native Cat are issuing the debut EP from Berkeley recording artists Brijean. It’s a collaboration between Brijean Murphy (drummer for a bunch of great bands including Toro y Moi) and producer Doug Stuart. It’s called Walkie Talkie and you can hear the title track as well as “Show and Tell” on their bandcamp. From the sound of those it’s a mellow disco record very much in the vein of La Impératice or Polo & Pan. You also get the same kind of tropicália vibes that are apparent in Stereolab’s music. Seven tracks in total, so you’ll get a lot if you support their crowdfunder for a proper vinyl release later in the year.
