Her Space Holiday - Let's Get Quiet Vol 2

Recording as Her Space Holiday since 1996, Marc Bianchi creates sugarcoated dreamscapes floating alongside bittersweet narratives of life. He’s been featured in many of the industry’s top music magazines, including Spin, Mojo, and DJ, has reached #2 on the CMJ charts (with The Young Machines), and has toured with some of the world’s top indie acts including Bob Mould, Bright Eyes, Arab Strap, and The Faint. Always challenging himself, Bianchi’s sound has morphed from release to release as he has added more intricate sampling and drum programming to an already rich palette of sounds and matured as a songwriter. His Mush releases come after releases for Tigerstyle and his latest full-length for Wichita. Let’s Get Quiet vol. 2 is a four-track instrumental EP. Opener “OSAF” harkens back to the electro-infused beats of hip-hop’s early days. “Wrapped in Plastic” is classic Her Space Holiday: intricate string flourishes, intriguing breakdowns, and melodic refrains over electronic drums. On “Panda Strikes”, Arabesque synth lines weave through thick bass lines and dancefloor-ready drumbeats. The EP’s closer, “Wishbone,” is all lulling tropicalia, as dense string arrangements and lush melodies float over dreamy production. Let’s Get Quiet vol. 2 is a collection that displays styles from Bianchi’s musical palette not explored on his more traditional releases and a wonderful addition to the Her Space Holiday catalog.
