In Our Minds


Underwater Peoples records is home to a slew of 2010's most promising acts including Mountain Man, Fluffy Lumbers, and Rainbow Bridge. The label generously put a free compilation under all our Christmas trees this year, and while each of the artists made solid contributions, one track from Brooklyn's Air Waves shines through the lo-fi haze and has been intoxicating us for almost a month now. "Sweetness" is like tripping on acid for 3 minutes inside a temperature controlled bubble while a blizzard and sub-zero temperatures ravage the world around you - the upbeat simplicity of it all is sure to slap a shit-eating grin on your face even if everything you love is frozen.
