Channel: mariteaux
Date: 08/12/2023

In 2000, mtlx had a surprise hit on MP3.com with their weird electronic-alt-weird-samples record Last Summer. In 2023, it resurfaces online for your listening pleasure.

The idea for Last Summer came in 2020 when dcb tricked me with a fake album and I set out to make it a real thing. This wound up fizzling out, and the songs and projects sat for years, conflicting me. This past October, I reworked the entire thing and wrote the remaining tracks, making it my first record in over four years, almost five. I'm supremely proud of it - and relieved to see it finally done after a month and a half of much musical stress.

Buy it on Bandcamp if you dig (there'll be a listening party for it tonight, 12/8/23, at 8PM EST): http://aphrodisiac.bandcamp.com/album/last-summer
