We have an interview with Sylvan Esso coming up in our November issue [Tape Op #176], but in the meantime check out this new live session, Live at Sid...
Check out the new song, “1+1=0”, and fun video from South Korean artist Kim Jimin, who records as Meaningful Stone. The track is a collaboration with producer Melina Duterte, aka Jay Som, and the video is a fun peek at Kim’s trip to Los Angeles and a behind the scenes look at Melina’s home studio setup.
The song is a catchy, dreamy, pop song with chiming guitars and a great shuffle beat.
Look for a full interview with Melina in a fall issue of Tape Op by regular contributor Danielle Goldsmith.
Tape Op is a bi-monthly magazine devoted to the art of record making.
