Branches Of Sun

by Aukai

supported by

Jeff Kliment Aukai Volume II. Life is good.

Dr. Beaf I suspect this album will be a big deal in the world music category. I’ve sampled snippets of each track that has made me very enthusiastic to not die before it gets released.

Costero
by Slow Meadow

supported by 32 fans who also own “Branches Of Sun”

Slow Meadow's music feels like it captures the essence of a soul. Since the first time I came across the self titled debut some time in 2016, I've been repeatedly amazed at how many spacious layers of beauty and pain can be woven into a single song. Love this release and am happy to support such inspiring composition. 𝔅𝔩𝔦𝔰𝔰 ॐ 𝔄𝔟𝔶𝔰𝔰

Slow Meadow
by Slow Meadow

supported by 29 fans who also own “Branches Of Sun”

Slow Meadow's S/T LP debut is a deftly layered recording. It presents a melancholic yet serene tonality. The tracks and their languid flow are wrapped in classical ambient colors. Of note is the gorgeous cello of Aimee Norris and the violin accompaniment of Andy Shelton, Joshua Ello, and Alia Gonzales. Nice introduction. Brilliant debut. Gary Figueroa
