Why do we like this?

Sometimes local talent sneaks up on my unexpectedly. Case in point: Gourmet, who's song I decided to premiere before realizing he was actually from the same city as me (Cape Town). Cool!

"Forever Backwards" is a great experimental indie track that ends up sounding quite mature given that it's off the artist's debut album. That said, it's clearly no fluke -- we picked up on another one of his singles "Animals" a mere two days ago.

Gourmet will be releasing Cashmere for free on December 29th via boutique label 1991, so be sure to keep an eye out.

By Jason Grishkoff on Feb 12, 2015 | I first fell in love with Jonathan Visger's way back in ~2008 or 2009 when he was lead singer of Mason Proper. Something about the band's raw indie rock and experimental approach made a fanboy of me. Never could I have imagined that one day Jonathan... read more →

By Jason Grishkoff on Dec 8, 2015 | This song had my attention from the word "go." And from there it kept me on my toes, with a difficult and interesting melody that twists and turns at each and every opportunity. In short, this is everything I like to hear from an indie rock song. "... read more →
