Have you ever listened to an album, or maybe even a specific artist, and it’s like the speakers are hugging your ears? Or the songs have come to life and are wrapping you in a comforting, friendly, relaxing embrace?

Lo Fi City Recordings artist Jake Borgemenke and Joey Joesph, of Pomegranates, have combined forces to create a shimmering, jangly, throwback pop album called Subliminal Clave.

Cincinnati’s own Lo Fi City has released a new, 14 track compilation - titled Peace Beast - with all proceeds from sales on June 17th going to the NAACP Legal Defense Fund, as well. So for the day, 100% of sales will go to this great organization - what’s not to like?

So well done, and so interesting from the start, that it’s easy to keep listening… and listening. Enter Lo Fi City’s upcoming release of Jake Borgemenke’s Close to Obscurity.
