GRMLN – Relax Yourself (Dolphin Cry)

GRMLN, a project by an Orange County college student named Yoodoo, is the perfect music to pass that interminable afternoon in the library or cubicle. These sunny melodies will be most assuredly stuck in your head at the end of a brief listening session. The breathy vocals are more atmospheric than anything, but I do hear a catchy line or two steal the music’s soft thunder. It would be cool to have some elaborate beats counter the melodies- it’s really the only thing keeping me from going gaga. But fans of Seapony through Beach House now have a new love for the weekend.
