This is another musical duo, but this time out of Los Angeles. Tashaki Miyaki has a dreamy lofi sound that has me totally enamored. “Girls on T.V.” came out in January as a little sample of the duo’s recently released album, The Dream. As you drift along on the lithe vocals, the garage-tinged indie sound will begin to dissolve into some heavy texturing before returning to its prior permutations, just to keep things interesting. This is a great single for summertime with its casual, cool kid attitude and easygoing melody.
“Menace and mystery surround this female Jesus and Mary Chain, whose vocals cut like honey-coated razor blades. The vocals are from the Debbie Harry school of sounding sweet and then kicking your face in. They put the ‘psycho’ and ‘candy’ into Psychocandy.”
