Out now on the Bad Vibrations imprint, 'Magic' is the debut single from Brisbane, Australia-based psych-pop artist Baby Cool (aka Grace Cuell, co-frontwoman of Nice Biscuit.) Arriving following recent tour dates with Babe Rainbow and The Lazy Eyes, Cuell says of the single:
"It’s difficult to think fondly of yourself when you’re caught in a loop of destructive habits. I wrote Magic as a way of kissing myself gently on the forehead during such times. Life seems to be an infinite cycle of remembering and forgetting, and with this comes a need to learn how to forgive yourself over and over again.”
The track softly lands into a Biscuit-esque groove from the off, before Cuell’s sublime vocals echo through a layered soundscape. Pulling the listener into the realm of Baby Cool for the first time, ‘Magic’ gently brushes through the genre of psych – combining fuzz-driven chorus’ with washed-out melodies that build into a bridge of kaleidoscopic vocal harmonies.
Shoegaze ist die Kunst des Dröhnens, doch „Everything Is Alive“ setzt diese Elemente nur sparsam ein. Statt Hall- und Zerr-Sounds aufzutürmen, schäumt die Musik in feinen Bläschen über.

Post-punk meets a very classic alt-rock sound on the new record from this Chicago group. RIYL The Breeders, Dinosaur Jr, and Yo La Tengo. Bandcamp New & Notable May 4, 2024
Just the fact that a song called Hot Ghee could be so awesome makes me love it. I was lucky to see Night Beats perform in Austin last year, and I felt like the music was even better in person. Michelle May
