What to listen to when summer is in its full swing and Covid-19 detains you from travelling to your favourite vacation spot? Well, time to take a trip insight your mind ... or maybe even throw a socially distanced pool party if you are capable of. Whatever you do, make sure to have some Washed Out playing on your speakers. And we're not just talking about his brilliant new album "Purple Noon" but also the great mixtape mastermind Ernest Greene compiled for us.
The Detroit-based artist Tiffadelic moves at her own pace. From growing up on artists like Jimi Hendrix and Sade, she got into goth and alternative music, something that didn't always land with her peers. Her debut, "Retrosynthesis Vol I", is a document of survival and self-liberation. We spoke to Tiffadelic about what shaped her sound, the stories of survival that informed the record, and why we need songs as rituals of protest.
