Sylvie's New Season arrives November 6th. The Los Angeles-based artist starts anew, leading a rotating cast of collaborators through golden-hued material that suits the season. The music evokes Laurel Canyon's spirit and Nashville's songwriting tradition, all given a contemporary sheen.

"His sound, these songs, are crucial threads in music culture now as he has had a hand in crafting one of 2020s very specific sounds, a hazy dream pop where one’s head is in rumbly clouds." @1234KYLE5678 on Bullion, link below.

SV: It is funny how technology changes, but good is still good, right? LH: Yeah, it’s just like it’s like food. I mean, you could come up with all the recipes, but the basic ingredients are still, you know, the same. So that’s where the creativity comes in, mixing them together in different ways.

You can never see the bottom of a Bullion song, even though the water is crystal clear. A carp swims by, some bubbles rise.

Honored to be brought up in conversation between these two greats. The quote in question is below from the @domesticetch article. BTW- The seed of that quote was planted in my mind by @nicoleginelli
feels relevant right now, so here is a clip of myself and @domesticetch discussing the art of gatekeeping, and why having less resources can be more critical to developing your own creative style shoutout to @EdSunspot too

Thu, Feb 5, 12:24 PM Dear Sam, I’m writing upon behalf of Peter. Apologies for the delay we’re very busy. Over several years working with Peter the only thing I have heard playing during the week is ancient choral music, Peter refers to it as ‘ambient gravitas’. I suggest you select from any of the following enclosed in the PDF. Warmest regards, Tom.
