Homeshake, KeithCharles

Don't Miss
Does anyone else find themselves tuning into the “lo-fi hip-hop study beats” tracks on YouTube? You know, just to calm down and write, or whatever? These tracks are good because they don’t demand active listening and aren’t distracting. Homeshake has the same sort of vibe. This is a compliment, by the way. Montreal-based Peter Sagar’s music is definitely more specific, but still very stoned, very noncommittal, very bedroom. That’s honestly sexy to me. The sounds are synthy, the beats kind of funky, and Sagar’s voice mopey. Listen to “Just Like My” off his most recent release, Helium, when you feel lightly high and horny, but don’t want leave your couch.
