SUICIDE DREAM


Tom (a.k.a. How To Dress Well) describes the music he makes with three fairly dissimilar markers:



"international gay r&b, haunt-pop, noise"




However, we're not talking harsh noise. This is minimal and soaring, fairly subdued and dark. He is in the middle of releasing a run of five 3" CDs over the next six months. The first, The Eternal Love, dropped out the sky earlier this month and features a reworking of one of my favorite new jack swing // 90s R&B cheese tracks "Candy Rain" by Soul 4 Real.

Here's a couple newer tracks from the Friday Morning Hymnal 3" CD, featuring someone by the name of cokc dokc, both supremely airy and perfect for some sort of early morning grass frost crunching beneath soles.
