New Zealand's Yumi Zouma is the rare band that became one of our favorites on the strength of one perfect song: the timeless, swaying, instant soft-disco classic "The Brae", which we fell in love with upon first listen back in early 2014...

Sam Perry of Yumi Zouma shares the warped and woozy first single from his solo psych-pop project Zen Mantra: “Second Skin” elicits an eerie nostalgia and the inescapable tinge of vague melancholy that tends to go along with that, but there’s a brightness that comes from Perry’s pop sensibility shining through the song's dark undertones. Sam says of the new record:

Yumi Zouma share their dreamy new video, shot in the Yumis' idyllic hometown of Port Hills of Christchurch in New Zealand. "Second Wave" is taken from one of our favorite releases of the year, the group's EP II, and can also be had on their new EP Collection, out now on Cascine. Video by Julian Vares:

THANK YOU FOR HAVING US GvsB! Lastly we need to post this song. The Shocking Pinks are from Christchurch like us, and are maybe one of the most underrated bands from New Zealand in our opinion. We hate it when people say that things are underrated, but we really think that Nick Harte's song writing (especially in this time period) is something so special...

I've been lucky enough to work with Flying Nun the last 3 years re-issuing a lot of their back catalog. I'm the first to admit that I'm not so well versed with the obscure parts of the catalog. Bird Nest Roys' 'Me Want Me Need Me Get' is a great compilation we did of the band's early works...

Wet Wings were a great band from Christchurch. Lucy and Darian created a really special world in their music, there really wasn't anything like it in New Zealand at the time. It was actually the first time I heard about Gorilla Vs Bear, when Chris posted about their first EP 'Skin To Soil' in 2010...
