stay open


so i don't really know who rhye is, and a cursory webernet search has provided with no exposition beyond hints at an LA-based duo that value their anonymity. what i do know is that open cuts through a musicblogop4ksphere that's become dominated with #ldr style pretentiousness / deadmau5 mindless bopping with an honesty, clarity and soul i missed so much. it's so tastefully minimal, letting each instrument and note hold its own life, i know i'll be listening over and over. please please have a listen before it gets skrillexed with the "drops" and the "wubs" or whatever the fuck passes for music these days. there's a video that goes along with the song, but it's a tad racy, and my mother's been seen round these here parts from time to time, so let's watch that one on our own time, shall we.

rhye - open
