' '
,: Oakland percussionist Brijean Murphy spent years as a touring :,
: percussionist with a long list of indie royaltyùplaying with :
:' U.S. Girls and Poolside, joining Toro y Moi for an epic ':
,: performance in the empty desertùbefore stepping into the :,
: spotlight on 2019Æs Walkie Talkie, her first album as Brijean :
:' with Oakland multi-instrumentalist Doug Stuart. On that album, ':
,: the pair subtly mix elements of tropicßlia, funk, and chillwave :,
: into intimate and inviting arrangements, for songs that manage :
:' to feel breezy and melancholy at once. ':
,: :,
: Feelings, BrijeanÆs second album (and first for Ghostly :
:' International), marks a shift towards a more sumptuous sound. ':
,: Feelings draws on a similar palette as BrijeanÆs earlier work, :,
: but here, every componentùthe plush synths, StuartÆs punching :
:' bass lines, the bouquet of polyrhythmic percussion, MurphyÆs ':
,: patient, tender voiceùhas been expanded to IMAX dimensions. The :,
: result is an album thatÆs as soothing as it is grand, an :
:' antidote for bitter winter cold. ':
,: :,
: Brijean has a gift for crafting propulsive, infectious grooves, :
:' as heard on radiant lead single ôDay Dreamingö (which features ':
,: Toro y MoiÆs Chaz Bear on keyboards) and the albumÆs peppy title :,
: track. But the recordÆs most enthralling moments arrive when she :
:' overlays her stadium-sized hooks with laconic, pastel-hued ':
,: soundscapes. ôWifi Beachö pairs the frantic clatter of :,
: percussion with a riptide of slow-moving synth and chiming keys :
:' to dizzying effect, while album standout ôOceanö is a gorgeous ':
,: and meditative slow-burn that draws power from its stark, :,
: thunderous drums. From start to finish, Feelings has a kind of :
:' sonic luxuriousness that mirrors the lyricsÆs immutable joy. ':
,: ItÆs a balm, and a thing to treasure. Or, as Brijean puts it :,
: herself in ôHey Boyö: ôWhen the vibe feels so right/ Hold on :
:' tight.öus to feel alive. They radiate in wonderful abandon and ':
,: with a sense of devotion to the self. :,
