Earlier this year, Alex Calder released his much anticipated debut album, Strange Dreams. Under the Radar said of the debut, “He’s able to tap into the dark side of slackerdom without losing sight of what makes a permanent-daydream lifestyle so seductive, allowing Strange Dreams to work as both a subversive take on millennial indie’s chilled-out obsessions and an album of simple pop pleasures.”
Calder also released a collection of tracks from his side-project Mold Boy on Record Store Day. Mold Boy finds Calder veering more into experimental territory while retaining the weird-pop elements of his current work. Do not miss the chance to delve further into the hazy world of Alex Calder.
