{"product_id":"magdalena-bay-imaginal-disk-1","title":"Magdalena Bay- Imaginal Disk (CD)","description":"\u003cp\u003eMagdalena Bay, the Los Angeles-based duo of Mica Tenenbaum and Matthew Lewin, create magical pop music that floats in the ether of our collective social cosmos. While they call California home, their essence lies in the clouds, emitting unique yet familiar frequencies of synthesized nostalgia, kitschy catchiness, and warped neo-hooks. Suited for the times, Magdalena Bay blends the known and felt with innovative sonic landscapes. Tenenbaum and Lewin met as teenagers in a Miami high school music program. Tenenbaum, who moved from Buenos Aires to Florida at age one, and Lewin, a guitar shredder influenced by his dad's prog and concept rock records, quickly recognized their kindred spirits. They formed a prog band called Tabula Rasa and began a romance. Both were skilled musicians; Tenenbaum a pianist and singer, and Lewin self-taught in production and music theory. Despite attending different colleges, they maintained their band, traveling hours to rehearse before realizing two things: their relationship was undeniable, and prog rock wasn't resonating with young audiences. Shifting their focus to pop, they explored it's craft, leading to the creation of Magdalena Bay. They learned the complexities of pop writing and production, striving to create something interesting within the genre. Describing their music broadly as \"pop,\" they released several EPs and singles before debuting their album, \"Mercurial World,\" in 2021. Praised for it's melodic hooks and meticulous production, it was often labeled as \"synth-pop.\" Their success is reflected in streaming numbers, social media followers, and festival appearances. Magdalena Bay's stylized online aesthetic complements their music, creating a cohesive artistic vision. Tenenbaum says, \"We love extending the world of our music past sound into videos or graphics.\" Lewin adds, \"We're trying to create an atmosphere or an emotional quality with it.\" This integrated approach, termed \"world-building,\" is central to their artistry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTrack List\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShe Looked Like Me!\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Killing Time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e True Blue Interlude\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Image\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Death ; Romance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Fear Sex\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Vampire in the Corner\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Watching T.V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Tunnel Vision\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Love Is Everywhere\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Feeling Diskinserted?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e That's My Floor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Cry for Me\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e Angel on a Satellite\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e The Ballad of Matt ; Mica\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e","brand":"AEC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45700747100381,"sku":"810090095356","price":23.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0551\/1056\/6043\/files\/4360107-3210140.jpg?v=1731101934","url":"https:\/\/shop.darksiderecords.com\/en-ca\/products\/magdalena-bay-imaginal-disk-1","provider":"Darkside Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
