@ (At) - Mind Palace Music (BLUE AND WHITE MARBLE VINYL)

With an affinity for blending digital with analog elements, @ describe Mind Palace Music as “hyperfolk,” though the record never feels self-indulgent. Rose and Filipczak are just as inspired by the thoughtful delicacy of ambient pioneers like Laurie Spiegel as they are by the timeless quality of singer-songwriters like Vashti Bunyan. You can feel the influence of those ‘70s folk greats while also evoking the tender drone and foolproof melodies of Elliott Smith, Alex G, or Sparklehorse.
