All my senses are fleeting
When entangled, the heart sings a pleading song
through and through
i knew You knew
me better than i knew myself
through and through
You knew
the Way i was to go
Ill do without the static
Your love is automatic…
i can breathe so easily
when i see You smile at me
and i can breathe so easily
cause Your smile is all i need
You're all i need
You're the only one that sees me in my rare form
in the darkest of the nights
You were there for me
had a notion that the ocean weren't the end of it
You took the stone from my chest and
put some flesh in it
the blood covers all the things that i couldn't save
and takes my guilt and washes over like a tidal wave
im not old man just frontin' with a new suit
You called me son and stood me up
to bear
some new fruit
i can breathe so easily
when i see You smile at me
and i can breathe so easily
cause Your smile is all i need
You're all i need
There is no metronome to the rhythm of my heart
There is no autotune for the melody that breathes inside me

"Speaking in Cursive" was the breakout EP that landed a few singles in independent films and put ELANI on the Portland-area map. ... more

Love & War & The Sea In Between
by Josh Garrels
Josh Garrels is a deep well and his music carries the sound of hope in each melody, lyric, and cadence.
go to album
Few records say so much with so little. The longing for home in each of these tracks have filled my heart with hope and wonder on long walks and in the dead of winter.
go to album
A Diamond in the rough, woven like patchwork into the very quilt of this current age. Noltern's extensive release catalog gets better with each offering. RIS is no exception. It's the new NOW.

I Wish You Could See Yourself Right Now
by Gentle Organisms
The aptly named Gentle Organisms specialize in quietly radiant songs centered on tender melodies.

Disturbing Dreams
by The Kartetch
Knotty alt-rock with corkscrewing guitars and steely vocals on an album that packs a punch.

Flower Of Life [LP]
by Taleen Kali
"Flower Of Life" yanks riot grrrl south through the unmistakable garage psych sound indispensable to the last 20-odd years of rock music out of Los Angeles.
