Moon Moods, the second solo album from Los Angeles DIY scene veteran and performance artist Diva Dompé, is out next Tuesday, October 9th via Critical Heights. Though she originally recorded these sprawling, keyboard-driven songs on a Tascam 8-track cassette recorder, DIVA cleaned them up so well in digital post-production that her voice sounds spookier and more siren-like than ever. Sax, auto-harp, and stand-up bass give Moon Moods a celestial sheen, but her compositions haven't lost that childlike awe and figure-it-out-as-you-go awkwardness that makes them feel so human.
