A beautiful Indie project: Ramona Falls

I dig once, and I find nothing.

I dig again, and I find something interesting.

I continue digging and I finally come across something worth it. I take possession of the record. I listen to it, feeling satisfied.

There are times instead, when I find something that I consider special. Something that makes me feel happy. I can go to sleep with a big smile on my face. Today, I probably found what I was looking for the last three nights, while I am in the middle of mid-term exams and should probably research something regarding my two hundred papers. But hey! it doesn’t matter! I got what I wanted. Something special.

And if I don't share it, I can't fully enjoy it.


Ramona Falls!

I have listen to the record without even knowing who they were, without reading any review, cause I don't want them to influence my judgment. Just my ears and a couple of cold beers. 1st track brilliant, 2nd also…who are these guys??

After I finished to listen twice to all the record, I have decided that it was the right time to google them. Ramona Falls is the project of Brent Knopf, the mastermind of the indie band “Menomena”, together with the collaboration of more than 35 Portland-area indie musicians. And it's a beautiful piece of work.

I honestly don't want to bore you with my mental masturbation regarding the music sounds and how great this album is. There is enough stuff like this on the web, and tonight I don't fell the need to add anything more.

Just take a break. Stop. Listen to the music, let it flow…it’s a beautiful album. After “Devotion” by Beach House, it's probably the record I am currently enjoying the most. It makes me want to dig again and again.





Hope you're enjoying it out there
