Daily Doses: Sun Glitters “Everything Could Be Fine” From Everything Could Be Fine (2011)

Shift down baby, we got some slow riding to do.

I don’t say this lightly, but Everything Could Be Fine, the debut release from Luxembourg’s Sun Glitters is one of the most exciting things I’ve heard this year.

Throughout last year and into this year, exciting artists like Star Slinger, Young Montana and Gold Panda have made playful use of samples and gotten experimentally curious with elements of dub-step and other electro influences and have created some of the best jams of last year. 

With Everything Could Be Fine, Sun Glitters joins their ranks. 

Concentrating more on the “Chillwave” side of the equation, the eight tracks on Everything Could Be Fine (Starting with the stunning “Beside You” and ending with the title track, featured here) are haunting down-tempo odes to anticipation. Slowly building but never exploding, each track feels like it captures a perfect moment and stops it, capturing every angle in a timeless freeze frame. 

As with anything, slow it down enough and it must bear up to a lot more scrutiny. But the confidence in each of these tracks, as well as the release as a whole leaves it more than up to the task.

I’d recommend spending a lot of time with this one.
