1982 SUMMER SEASON

The Parasails - Skylife 3

The Parasails - Skylife 2 [via RCRD LBL]

So Matthew Mondanile continues to release even more amazing music this year under this new pseudonym The Parasails. Like his work in Ducktails, Real Estate, Predator Vision and Dreams in Mirror Field, the Skylife LP is super chill, full of the best vibes and retains his uncanny ability in creating the most intensely visual and vivid evocations with sound. Somehow Mondanile's warbly guitar and hypnotic synth loops look and sound like gently curling wind swirls, memories where you felt genuinely happy, and scenery like this:
