    Fresh Air is confidently obtuse in that it expertly harnesses the power in Sagar’s slightly off-kilter and out-of-tune instrumentation.

    Calm, cool and collected, Fresh Air is a record you'll have playing in the background while you light a candle, anticipating your lover's knock at the door--or something like that.

    While there isn’t quite anyone who possesses Sagar’s style in the wide world of indie rock, he’ll have to add a few more tricks, lest he fall into rote routine.

    Self-assured felted guitar, velvety vocals, boiled hip-hop, and shades-down electronica are certainly Fresh Air, rooted in a DIY greenness and piecemealed found recordings. The dichotomy is refreshing and unassuming.

    Following the stripped-down, melancholy electro-R&B of his 2015 album Midnight Snack, Homeshake's Peter Sagar expands on this sound with the less weird, more refined Fresh Air.

    I don't mean this as a discredit to the album, but it is fantastic background music. It is relaxing, refined, clean and soulful.

I do really enjoy this album and recommend it to anyone who likes relaxed R&B. Also checkout Demarco, Triathlon and Temporex if you enjoy this album (along with Homeshake's other albums).… Full Review »
