(Official Music Video Below) Last year sometime, I met Melbourne-based Chillwave artist Lacunae Glow online through a music community group on Facebook of professional indie musicians.

One of my favorite podcasts is Song Exploder, where host Thao Nguyen invites guests to deconstruct their songs. How fascinating is it to hear the various textures and parts that make up a great song, as well as what inspired it? Since it’s been a year since I released by first album, Dream Dance, it Read More…
