The Sprigs! Wonderfully endearing stay-at-home DIY primitivisms cooked up in a deep South London suburb by this unknown act, housed on this humble and unassuming CDr. It’s as scrappy collage of naive keyboards, contact-mic rattle and frayed / guitar riffs with a certain British strain of woolly hermeticism, moments between moments sorta feel or the things that happen between actual songs. There prettier, bare-bones acoustic moments are perfectly offset with scruffier bits of muffled clatter, but each element constructs this perfect homey microcosm that leans closer to a feeling of optimism as opposed to some of the more claustrophobic route this stuff can take. It’s no secret that I personally hold this stuff high on a pedestal - music that was never destined to leave the house - but genuinely this is all I need right now. Best of 2021 so far! Limited to 50 - comes with instant download dropped into your account on purchase * new feature *. (Mint / New)
