Some Other Ones

In the sweltering summer of 2015, Mac DeMarco, the indie lo-fi maestro, cooked up a sonic feast that he affectionately dubbed his "BBQ soundtrack." The result was "Some Other Ones," a brief but potent collection of original instrumental tracks that clock in at just over 22 minutes. Recorded in a flurry of creativity between July 4-8 in the far reaches of Rockaway, Queens, NY, this album is a testament to DeMarco's spontaneous and laid-back approach to music.

"Some Other Ones" is a vibrant and eclectic mix of nine tracks, each with its own unique flavor, much like the ingredients at a summer BBQ. From the spicy "Little Pepper" to the sweet "Young Coconut," and the enigmatic "Hachiko," every song is a delightful surprise. The album's lo-fi indie sound is as warm and inviting as a summer evening, with DeMarco's signature slacker rock vibes and dreamy melodies.

This album is a limited edition gem, initially pressed on canary yellow vinyl with only 5,500 copies worldwide, making it a collector's item for fans of Mac DeMarco and indie music alike. "Some Other Ones" is not just an album; it's a snapshot of a moment in time, a summer's day in Rockaway, captured in sound. Dedicated to Wayne Weiner, this album is a tribute to the simple pleasures of life, music, and good company.

So, crank up the volume, invite your friends over, and let Mac DeMarco's "Some Other Ones" be the soundtrack to your next gathering. It's the perfect blend of laid-back grooves and upbeat rhythms that will keep the good vibes flowing all summer long.
