This week’s GLI Press Song of the Week is “4U PT. 2” by HOOPS (aka Drew Auscherman), a musician who I think is from Indiana. The music feels a lot like the Makeout Videotape (Mac Demarco) EP Heatwave! in its combination of low-fi DIY production, strong melodic content, and enigmatic persona. Auscherman's music (on this trackm at least) is a bit more sunny-sweet, leaning toward psych-pop romanticism.
He’s made two mix tapes available for download on the Gorilla Vs. Bear site. Hopefully we’ll get to hear even more soon.

Other Highlights:
Haroon Mirza demonstrates the locked groove turntable technique. It's a very interesting kind of musical construction. If you’re not careful, you’ll soon find yourself in an electro-trance.
CHIRP Radio in Chicago has produced a new Factory Session, this one featuring the legendary No-Wave band ONO, still making music and not compromising after more than 30 years. Avant-Garde grooves and beats combined with vivid and blunt in-your-face social-political lyrical artistry.
