    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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 reallyI 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 »
