As the final offering off of their much talked about, EP 2, “I’ll Bet” from Brooklyn-based garage-psych trio, Del Caesar, is both timeless and totally of the moment in that it could have been recorded yesterday or in 1965.

An homage to 90s acoustic bedroom ballads, “Free Season” is the latest from Hamilton slacker rock outfit Pet Sun. Though somewhat pensive and a bit more dismal than what we’ve heard from these guys in the past, that’s almost appropriate since this Aabid Youssef directed video explores the strange push and pull relationship that is often at play between analog technology and the rest of nature.
