♫♪  Dissolve - “Where We Are”

Got an e-mail from my nostalgia-neighbor Jónó Mí Ló the other week suggested in scope out Dissolve’s new video for “Where We Are.” Having never heard Dissolve prior (that I’m aware), I immediately obtained EVERYTHING I could find on them off the internet, and without some BIG help from dark web sites, I’d have found close to nothing. However, this is a really important aspect to music for me: the mystique. Hiding your art in an age so driven to find it, break it down, and move along is impressive; using names to disguise your work in plain site is not only easy, but garners ALL my respect for trying to keep private.

Anyhow, another irony is: Jónó hitting me up with Dissolve’s “Where We Are” is too good, because I LOVE listening to shoe-gazed or shit-anthemed or lo-fi or skuzzed out music while driving around the neighborhoods we grew up in. Aside from the fact that the vocals are supremely serene, guitar is placed at a listener distance, and drums pacing the perfect heartbeat (musically speaking/writing), but the video’s candor of image upon image, effect over face, twinkles of forever… it’s complete. Feel it’s completeness above, and scope Death Records for Dissolve’s newest release!
