YallDontHearMe Absolutely incredible release. Been needing some honest music like this. Favorite track: To The Top feat. Keith Lawrence.

church Excellent so far, can only hear the two songs available from preordering but the borderline creepy vibe of the backing track, along with the subdued vocals are excellent. I could have gone without the artificial vinyl surface noise though. Favorite track: To The Top feat. Keith Lawrence.

cssttnb I didn't know I was looking for this, but I'm glad I found it.

From the jazz and lounge to the hip-hop and soul, with great vocals throughout, this album makes it hard to pick a favorite song.

It does a fantastic job of bringing together its different elements.

The only drawback for me on this album is the added vinyl noise. I'd prefer analog noise as a result of the production or playback over something added in for effect. But overall it's a small nitpick for a great album.

about

Picture a Portishead universe where Beth Gibbons
stumbles from a dimly lit cave into a desolate post-future,
aware yet meandering, where songs of closure and
triumph resonate, where unclad vocals are anchored by
textured samples, at times sullen but always effectual.
Somewhere There’s Music is a record for fraught times,
the result of quarantine-induced reassessment and
reawakening. In Icelandic, SUNDUR means “apart.”

Savannah (Filipina out of LA) and Platurn (The Bay, by way
of Iceland) present Somewhere There's Music, 12 tracks of
woven melodies and scenic backdrops, not unlike the
pantheon of greats who precede them—Thievery
Corporation and Sault, nods to early Massive Attack, even
touches of Air.

An unlikely union during unlikely times, the two sum up
their collaboration thusly: “Somewhere There’s Music is an
ode to resilience. With hints of jazz, folk, soul, funk, and
lounge throughout, the album is largely experimental.
The lyrics are on themes of isolation, anger, grief, regret,
and heartbreak; there’s a toughness with a sense of hope
and upliftment. Ultimately, a reflective record that hits
many of the emotions that humanity went through
during the whole of 2020 and beyond.”
