Another artist high up our SXSW hit list was Florida’s MillionYoung. MillionYoung is Mike Diaz and he crafts some of the most blissful 4am haze dance tracks this side of Memory Tapes. Mike’s kindly given us permission to share with you a new track ‘Recess’ which features on a new bedroom made cdr you can grab from the man himself if you’re lucky enough to see him play. You’re going to love this.

For Fans Of: Memory Tapes, Washed Out, Toro Y Moi.

Live Mike carves out his tunes using a laptop, synth, guitar and his impressive dreamlike vocals floating above it all. He’s also joined by an amusingly laid back bongo player. ‘Cynthia’ from MillionYoung’s ‘Be So True EP’ is, as expected, a highlight – we’ve only one quibble with that track – surely it was crying out to be named Synthia?!

Enough from us but expect to hear a lot more from MillionYoung in the coming months and years.
