DoF

Great winter post today, moving slightly away from the more funky recent posts, to some nice pastoral acoustic electronica. DoF is producer and musician Brian Hulick, and if you enjoyed the recent King Seven post, you will definitely feel "Ten Cities" off of his 2004 Mine is May. Nice acoustic guitar melody blended with much improved programming really makes this a winner -- emotional without being melodramatic and great for a cold-weather car ride. Similar in tone to Howard Hello or Xela, this will be a nugget you will be proud to pass on to friends when you compile your holiday mix tapes. Airy, lively and just enough of that great endscene melancholy. Look for similarly toned posts over the next 3 weeks. We love our holiday season and since SK will be doing a lot of driving this year, look for roadtrip soundtracks galore. Resources
