A cute little computer is making some cute little music in Seattle! The cute little computer belongs to producer KLSLWSK of Manicure Records. The decidedly lo-fi “Drips” feels as nuanced as work by those other bubbly producers (SOPHIE, A. G. Cook, etc.), but it feels a little less calculated and slightly more spontaneous. If it were a video game character, it would be Kirby, floating indirectly in an upwards diagonal across the screen. It’s nice to see the door being opened by the growing popularity of PC Music for other like-minded producers. As the audience grows, so does the variety. KLSLWSK maintains a high BPM without letting “Drips” fly into mania. The bubble never pops, but keeps rising; the energy is direct, but it’s never exactly a straight line. I’m psyched to watch what comes out of Manicure Records in the near future: lots of soulful vocals, lots of bubbles, and most importantly, lots of danceable beats seem imminent.
