The San Francisco trio of Adam Abildgaard, Nick Duffy, and Ted Davis have built a loyal following and constant buzz over the last several years, with the 2019 EP ‘Mood Ring’ standing as their most kaleidoscopic work to date. Merging the quintessential melodies of pop’s past with contemporary touches to forge something truly unique, Hot Flash Heat Wave is just starting to create their own sonic world.
Last year’s EP launched the group into a realm entirely different from their previous catalogue. It is their truest-to-heart release yet, synthesizing a wide range of influences encompassing My Bloody Valentine, Frank Ocean, New Order, and Toro y Moi into something that sounds new and refreshing. Mood Ring’s lead single “Glo Ride” bounces with a slight R&B tilt against a dark, trippy atmosphere, while “Sky So Blue” finds the band spiralling into full-on psychedelia, complete with layers of spell-casting keyboards and a wonderfully zonked-out breakdown.
And the future only seems brighter from here: with September’s single ‘Grudge’ teasing a 2021 LP, Hot Flash Heat Wave is preparing for the next step up the staircase in their colorful sonic journey, with determination to elevate their craft in the process.
Music is a catalyst of enhancing mood and when it comes to chill, laid-back nights, no one seems to enhance the mood better than L.A.’s 19-year old Jasper Bones with his trademark “Chicano wavy-soul.” The artist’s forthcoming six-song EP, Cruise Control (due in fall 2019)–which Bones wears hats of writer, performer and producer–marks the first collection of music to be released since he dropped his first single in 2017.
“I take pride in my lyricism and songwriting and appreciate how much I’ve learned in production work over the last year,” says Bones. “It makes me unbelievably happy to know that others can relate to my lyrics or background which then unites all of us as a community. I’m extremely grateful for anyone that has taken the time to see me live or even just listened to one of my songs online.”
With his career’s rapidly-ascending trajectory, Bones stays grounded with the strong support system of family and friends. “They definitely spark emotion in me and have helped me learn how to allow myself to feel more, says Bones.
