BIG LOVE presents NITE JEWEL, The SAMPS, SAPPHIRE SLOWS

LA's Nite Jewel has honed her pop-funk craft across releases from Italians Do It Better, Mexican Summer, Secretly Canadian, Big Love, and LA's own Gloriette Records. In that time, Ramona Gonzalez's airy voice has found new gravitas and charisma. Stuttering 80s synth and R&B melodies unfold into one another in ways both giddying and deceivingly nonchalant.

The Samps get together when they can. They could Devour and Conquer the whole Realm Of Modern Day (2012) Electronic Music, but they're too busy trying to make money. The $amps are

Charland Burkhart (Wild Hunt, Dimesland, Star Grocery), Cole MGN (Nite Jewel, Haunted Graffiti, Everything), & J. Whitemare (Oakland Coliseum, Nothing).

There's a wonderfully hushed vibe to Tokyo's Sapphire Slows with her reflective gallery of delicate Casio nightlife masks, each of which feels stitched from thirsted fiber optic cables and swathed in the gauze of her haunted Cocteau drifter voice-smoke. Beats materialize out of stray radio textures billow above shadowed city parks.
