ORDER VINYL RECORD FROM DANDY BOY RECORDS
dandyboyrecords.bandcamp.com/album/blue-ocean
ORDER TAPE DIRECTLY FROM BLUE OCEAN
blueoceanmusic.bandcamp.com/album/blue-ocean
A swirling haze of sound glazes over dreamy pop songs, leaving a shimmering electric roar with a slight grin. The Oakland, CA duo Blue Ocean play with shoegaze & noise pop to make a sound that is somewhere between My Bloody Valentine's "You Made Me Realise" era and C86 jangle - but with repetitive motorik drumming.
Blue Ocean are Rick Altieri and David Stringi; long-time friends and former bandmates from the Boston acid punk band Puke, now reunited in Oakland. The “Blue Ocean” tape compiles their two most recent EPs: “Summer Of Hands” and “Fade”, mastered and cleaned up by Mikey Young.
The two have been making “two chord pop with layers of swirling noise and synth pads, backed by a pulsing drum machine” for the last couple of years. I only saw them once at Hit Factory Pop City, the benefit show for Hit Gallery in San Francisco. They opened the benefit (of 8+ bands) under a “mess of cables” and hissing distortion, played their wobbling version of pop.

Shop Regulars Meet Ian Christensen At Dino Alley
by Shop RegularsPseudo locked groove guitars, aggressive pitter-patter drumming, and vocals that sound like Sara Carter channeling Calvin Johnson- what's not to like from Portland's See My Friends Records affiliates?
go to album -
You Might Be Happy Someday
by The Reds, Pinks & PurplesThe seemingly endless output of The RP&P's catchy chorus-jangled melancholy keeps you coming back for more and more. Like if you captured Robert Smith's mindset during "The Head On The Door".

I Ain't Goin' Out Tonight
by GourmetI think I was supposed to release this album in 2016, but either I stopped responding to Gourmet's emails or Gourmet stopped responding to my emails. Regardless, the release did not happen.
