Smerz, Believer

The debut album from Norway's Smerz is one of my most anticipated projects of the year. Their enchanting pop alchemy has found its way onto our weekly playlist twice already with the songs "Believer" and "Flashing," and I'd wager they'll make at least a third appearance.

Benjamin John Power's latest project is split into two, roughly 20-minute sides. The pulsing synths of his compositions are still present, but the addition of field recordings lend a more immediately tangible, contemplative atmosphere.

If you're missing the club something fierce, Harle's new album posits a remedy: turn that nostalgia up to 11 with ceaseless, '90s rave-inspired vibes. Listening to the project now, I can't remember the last time my room felt this much like a rural warehouse packed with revelers.
