gypsy & the cat

Gypsy & The Cat are a Melbourne duo who’s take on 80’s synth infused take on yacht rock has landed them a lot of attention so far.  They’ve received accolades from Neon Gold, a release on Young and Lost in the UK, a slot on a Kitsune Maison compilation, and a spot on the NME Poll for the twenty “most likely”.  I think it’s warranted if they can keep making songs like “Bloom”; “a dreamscape ballad with washed out melodies and driving tom-fuelled rock and dance-floor highs”.   It was recorded and produced by the band with mixing help via Dave Fridmann (MGMT, Tame Impala).

If only we could go back in time and release this before the summer started.  But I guess its coming up on summer in Australia right?
