Mac DeMarco - Some Other Ones (LP)

In the sweltering summer of 2015, Mac DeMarco, the indie lo-fi maestro, cooked up a sonic feast titled "Some Other Ones." This isn't just any album; it's a BBQ soundtrack, a collection of original instrumental tracks that Mac deemed fit for a summer's day. Recorded over a mere five days in July, from the 4th to the 8th, in the far reaches of Rockaway, Queens, NY, this album is a testament to Mac's spontaneous and laid-back creative process. The album is dedicated to Wayne Weiner, adding a personal touch to this lo-fi gem.

"Some Other Ones" is a short but sweet journey through nine tracks, each with its own unique flavor, much like the vegetables they're named after. From the spicy "Little Pepper" to the tropical "Young Coconut," Mac DeMarco serves up a variety of sounds that are as diverse as they are delightful. The album's brevity, clocking in at just 22 minutes, makes it a perfect palate cleanser between more substantial listens.

The album was initially pressed on limited edition Canary Yellow vinyl, with only 5,500 copies worldwide, making it a collector's item for fans of Mac DeMarco's unique brand of indie lo-fi. Whether you're grilling in the backyard or just chilling indoors, "Some Other Ones" is the perfect soundtrack to your summer. So, fire up the grill, pour yourself a drink, and let Mac DeMarco's soothing sounds set the mood.
