This guest post comes to us from Cosmic Amanda, editor of Haverhill Fever, a blog dedicated to Boston's hipster suburb of Haverhill, MA (yes, Boston actually has hipster suburbs).  While she's never lived in San Francisco (the horror!), she always salts her avacado, has been caught graffiting public property, never liked MGMT in the first place, and prefers an It's-It to any other ice cream sandwich.  Occassionally she'll be chiming in about the Bay Area music scene and telling you what local bands would sound like if you saw them at T.T. the Bear's.

As a college radio deejay, occasional blog tourist, and lover of all things San Francisco I'm always on the lookout for new music from the Bay Area. Lately, I've been really digging chillwave musician (and apparently fellow aspirational San Franciscan) NanosauR.

This promotional video for his single Bravery sparked a total deja vu moment. It turns out he borrowed the same 1984 footage that Jane gushed over back in May. (Either that or Jane really did manage to make it back to 1984 and this is one of those major paradoxes Doc Brown warned us about.) Check it:

Oddly, the worn out haze of old videotape always reminds of the hottest days of 1980's summer. And this really works with NanosauR's blurry vocals, totally amping up the dreamy summer vibe of the track. Plus, I'm not gonna lie- the Pinback sample gives me a girl boner.

The rest of his debut EP, Shades, is equally awesome and includes another stand out track, Shades, which makes pretty tight use of a Computer Magic sample.  With each track NanosauR is proving he's not just some kid who makes music in his bedroom with an off-brand laptop and a korg. I mean, don't get me wrong, he is. He just happens to be really good at it.

Download the whole thing for free, put it on full blast, and enjoy this little heatwave you guys are having. Trust me, as someone currently surrounded by six foot snowbanks, it's the right thing to do.
