Aged to perfection, '76 14 00' is described as an 'unfathomably beautiful out-of-time masterpiece' in The Guardian's '1,000 Albums to Hear Before You Die' list. Certainly, on it was clear that it was something special, and not just because it was named after it's total running time (though in fact it is shorter) and each track is also titled after it's respective length. Tom Middleton and Mark Pritchard, the duo behind Global Communication and other aliases, stated in the sleeve notes that this was intended to avoid the implication that there was any specific meaning or subject matter to their compositions, leaving the listener free to interpret it according to their own imagination. And as the record is a certified classic of 1990s ambient and electronic experimentalism (clearly influenced by greats like Vangelis and Brian Eno), sweetly melodic, soothing and largely beatless, it is almost impossible to listen to it without eliciting extreme relaxation and flights of mental fancy.

Seattle surf-noir quartet La Luz their highly anticipated 2013 full length LP after collecting up high praise in regards to their live shows from LA to Texas to New York and everywhere in between and around! And no wonder there... The band has caused even the most jaded show goer to join in on the dance party by way of Soul Train. Musically, the bands address is somewhere around the Lively Ones, right next to the Shangri-Las, and across the street from Mazzy Star. You should look them up! This band has chops! This band has surf! This band has songs! It's the band you have been waiting for.
