Chessie
Wish it was Summer but it’s not. I was going to try and sit on this one until then, but I get to excited and can’t ever seem to do that. Stephen Gardner and Ben Bailes of Chessie have both been around for a minute, messing around with electronic music all through out the late nineties and finally released Manifest in 2008 on Plug Research. Combined with 2001′s Overnight, you get an amazing combination of style and beauty that makes you reference all your favorite bands from last week. Try not to fall in love too quick.

Yes! I loved that song Daylight back in the day. I had it on some mystery mix on a minidisc and never knew the artist. I love it when things work out like that, to hear such a great song you thought was lost. Thanks!
