CTV3: Cool Tape, Vol. 3

A psychedelic summer daydream blending 1960s pop sensibilities with modern cloud rap. Saturated in golden-hour light, acoustic guitars, and hazy vocal harmonies.

It's like if a 1960s surf-rock band grew up on Kid Cudi and recorded an album during a California sunset.

A bright, kaleidoscopic summer dream that feels both deeply nostalgic and vibrantly present.

Moments Worth Waiting For

The transition into the Beatles-esque psychedelic bridge on LUCY! that feels like a sudden shift in gravity.

The way the acoustic strumming on Falling for You melts into a lush, multi-layered vocal harmony.

The explosive, colorful beat drop on Rainbow Bap that maintains a soft, pillowy texture despite its energy.
