In yet another unwelcome and unexpected turn of events, February of 2021 will sadly have gone by bearing the mark of a grand musical chapter laid to rest. Electronic music’s masked superheroes will have retired with an immaculate legacy at the heart of a mystery destined to forever stay whole.

February will have also been marked with the end of Dreampunk’s pioneering Dream Catalogue Label, who closed shop right after sharing a treasure chest full of outstanding records by promising newcomers and seasoned scene veterans alike. For slick outrun and Synthwave enthusiasts, LAU will have dominated this month with her debut album Believer, whose catchy tunes will have you yearning for the day these songs will finally get a chance to hit the stage. For those with the spare time to dig and dwell into the Bandcamp’s dizzying depths for some postmodern, non-euclidian music, February proved to be a fairly interesting month. Vaporwave is still alive and weird, as you’ll certainly listen to find out in this month’s curated selection. Enjoy!

Recorded in September of 2020 in an East London studio amidst a UK lockdown, Live At Pink Bird breathes redefines the boundaries of Vaporwave by rearranging Donor Lens’ back catalogue for a 6-piece live band performance.

Vocalist Jana Tyrrell takes the lead on vocals and delivers a gripping performance on this 8-track voyage into pure cosmic bliss where the likes of Vaporwave, Synthwave and Future Funk collide and converge. Tune in, sit back and get ready to drift off into pure bliss.

Donor Lens – Midnight Store (Live Version)

 

Donor Lens – Midnight Store (Original)

The entire live session was also filmed and premiered on Youtube via Vapor Memory:

Donor Lens’ Live At Pink Bird is out now via My Pet Flamingo on Cassette and for digital download.
