I know very little about Akela the Lone Wolf, but I do know he’s a producer from Northern California, his debut album Catalyst is dropping sometime this year, and i’m obsessed with the first single, “Waaves (feat. JSPR)”. Easily my favorite song this month. It’s an experimental/ambient track, with a sound and style comparable to the likes of Blackbird Blackbird, Bonobo, Dntel, and Teen Daze, but definitely an original and creative piece of music. I can’t wait to hear more.
A few of my favorite new releases this week, including new stuff from Caveman, Generationals, Surrogate, Telekinesis, and the highly anticipated b-side/rarities/unreleased tracks compilation from Rilo Kiley. As always, be sure to visit Largehearted Boy for more new music. And one more thing, HAPPY 30th birthday to my Honey Bunny!!!
