Robert Sotelo
and
Mary Currie
(half of
Flaming Tunes
with
Gareth Williams
. Robert Sotelo is a bedroom pop songsmith who lives in Glasgow. Sotelo has released six albums since 2017, three of which came out on Upset The Rhythm. He also performs in

,
Dancer
, and
Nightshift
. Mary Currie is best known as half of touchstone DIY experimentalists Flaming Tunes, alongside Gareth Williams. Currie also performed in
Officer!
with
Mick Hobbs
amongst others. The
Dream Songs
7" EP title captures the hazy, reflective nature of the music it also expounds on the origin of tracks. These four tracks flutter with a minimalist bass, drum machine and keys dynamic, allowing Sotelo and Currie's vocals to speak deeply into the back of your mind. "Expectations" is a pensive triumph of whirled moments and momentum with Currie's final words lending much gravity "the outcome of my days is always the same, a void that must be filled, a battle against time that drags us along; mutating, spinning, ebbing, flowing. Begin again, we work to give value to time." "Telegraph Hill" boasts a glossy fluidity, as it plays with images of motorways, ancient citadels, crows, paralysis and emanations. "Lady Fortune" meanwhile is a tranquil treatise on fate, imbued with finessed electronic embellishments and clarinet flourishes. You can't quite trust where these songs will take you, they feel particularly mercurial. Dreams indeed.
