About this product
Mazy Fly, the second full-length by the Bay Area artist SPELLLING, explores the tension between the thrill of exploring the unknown and the terror of imminent destruction. Chrystia Cabral spent the summer of 2018 in her Berkeley studio reflecting on the thresholds of human progress and longing for a new and better tomorrow. She was struck by the way the same technologies that have given humans the ability to achieve utopian dreams of discovery have also brought the world to the precipice of dystopic global devastation. Despite the darkness of this reality, Mazy Fly is defiantly optimistic. It is a celestial voyage into the unknown, piloted by Cabral. Mazy Fly musically traverses the spaces between languid, honey-soaked vocals and distant angelic whispers, from thumping 808 club beats to crunching tape loops, and from silky, smooth R&B to whirling organ sonatas. Cabral became enamored by the idea of flight as a harbinger of both progress and apocalypse, and that was expressed in the textures and compositional techniques she utilized. Swarms, flocks, flies, angels, spaceships, flying saucers - all are represented sonically by Cabral and her Juno-106 synthesizer. Album Tracks 1. Red 2. Haunted Water 3. Hard to Please 4. Golden Numbers 5. Melted Wings 6. Under the Sun 7. Real Fun 8. Hard to Please (Reprise) 9. After Life 10. Dirty Desert Dreams 11. Mazy Fly 12. Falling Asleep

After a dormant period following the of the Gallery EP in 2012, Craft Spells' Justin Vallesteros is back with the gorgeously ambitious Nausea. It's Craft Spells' second proper full length LP, and first since 2010's critically acclaimed Idle Labor. Since last on the radar, Justin moved to San Francisco to find a niche in the Bay Area music scene. This proved difficult within the regarded garage rock scene and insular DJ night crowds currently dominating the area's music community. Album Tracks 1. Nausea 2. Komorebi 3. Changing Faces 4. Untitled 5. Dwindle 6. Twirl 7. Laughing for My Life 8. First Snow 9. If I Could 10. Breaking the Angle Against the Tide 11. Still Fields (October 10, 1987)
