[MP3] Mesita: “On Through The Dark”

Mesita (James Wooley) has been cranking out the tunes ever since we originally featured him on Knox Road back in April of 2010. While we’d love to post everything, we’ve been selfishly listening to them by our lonesome (well, other respected blogs have had some of them up, too.)

New mp3s from Jenn Mierau, including a Cure cover

Cool, frosty, distant…graceful. All adjectives that define Jenn Mierau’s entrancing electro pop sound.
