The single release from Jimi Tenor’s supcoming second thematic album titled “July Blue Skies” on Timmion Records offers two very different moods. “Summer of Synesthesia” takes us back to those dreamy summer days, a natural overpour of sensations mixing together, sounds becoming colors before turning into flavors. Synthesizers grow into delicate layers over Cold Diamond & Mink’s rhythm, and when your heart can hardly bear the beauty of it all, Tenor’s soft lyric places the cherry on top.
 

“Tsicroxe” on the flipside couldn’t be more different, kicking into gear with a demonic organ arpeggio that sounds like you’ve just been dropped into a Dario Argento scene. Even though the familiar funk from Cold Diamond & Mink eases the dread a bit, when Tenor busts in with the eerie flute solo, the ritual closes in on its conclusion.
