The Underground of Happiness

New music from Mint Julep , the husband and wife duo Keith and Hollie Kenniff , based in Portland, Oregon . It's a beautiful slice of shoegazey electro-pop, with a suitably dreamy female vocal, as the opening line confirms. "I lie awake dreaming of landscapes in the rain" The mid-section breakdown also reminds me a bit of OMD - just another reason to love it. You can download it for free here.
