Alaska Reid- Back To This
Alaska Reid announces her debut album Disenchanter, co-produced with A. G. Cook. Out on July 14th via Luminelle Recordings, Disenchanter finds Reid straddling her two hometowns – her native Park County, Montana, and adopted city of Los Angeles – where she still splits her time and garners inspiration from them both to craft her brand of “Mountain Pop.” Written while touring (Reid has opened for the likes of Porches, Charli XCX, Magdalena Bay, Maya Hawke, and Caroline Polachek), Disenchanter draws on the deep traditions of American country songwriting, the big, gritty guitars of Northwestern grunge, and the unrushed ease of Southern California living, all complemented by the inventive production style of Cook.
To celebrate the album announcement, Alaska Reid shares the album’s lead single entitled “Back To This,” which was co-written with Cook. With glittering guitars and synthlines that could soundtrack the school dance scene in an eighties movie, “Back To This” was inspired by a hike in the Absaroka-Beartooth Wilderness, where Reid witnessed a group of forest service workers on a break. “It was late summer and they looked happy and dusty. It was like a painted reverie from a classical painting,” explains Reid. “I fantasize about other people’s lives, other people’s professions, and writing is a way I can approximate what it must be like to be someone else. So this song is about stumbling upon a scene in someone else’s life and wanting to be a part of it, but it’s also about wondering if I ever seemed as cool or as worthy as those smokejumpers did.I also had this idea of looking back at a photo and wondering why, at the time, I did not feel like the version of myself looking back in the photo.” The song’s lyrics reference the surreal bravery of smoke jumpers fighting wildfires in the mountain west, people in their twenties as beautiful in the waning light of day as the natural beauty surrounding them.

Brain Eno- Deep Blue Day (Unlearn & MP Shaw Cover)
This rendition of Eno and Lanois’ seminal track from Apollo from 1983 takes hold of the oceanic essence that makes the original so compelling and holds on tightly for the ride. In a genre rarely covered, the duo did not want to frivolously remake the song or lose the atmosphere that makes Deep Blue Day so magical. Employing a soundscape of gauzy shoegaze synths and guitar, a sea of white noise carries the ostinato melody of a child’s resonator bells downstream as it sails toward the stars. The effect is simultaneously unique as it is reverent, and as tranquil and moving as the timeless track. Eno said it best, “Its sound is the sound of a mythical space, the mythical American frontier space that doesn’t really exist anymore.”

Since JulEYE- The Dawn Of Since
The Denver music scene is a tight-knit community, and the hotly-tipped trip-hop duo Since JulEYE reflect that camaraderie. Shattering genre confines with their uniquely-blended sonic stylings, Since JulEYE was born out of shared musical tastes and Denver’s warm, inclusive artistic identity.
Now, Since JulEYE releases their debut album, The Dawn Of Since, a full-length project that showcases its artists’ singularly aligned musical intuition. The LP consists of songs from when the two artists first started making music together, and boasts a title that appropriately evokes the duo’s origins. But the album is more than a time capsule of the group’s beginning work: it also reflects Since JulEYE’s ongoing evolution, tracing the lineage from their early sonic explorations into future material.
