Tune of the Day: Cruise by Astronautica

artworks-000040061702-lw0suf-t500x500

This track is taken from the excellent new album from LA's Astronautica, out now on Alpha Pup records. I've had this album playing in my car for the last few weeks-- it's got proper amounts of low end, but is also vibey and spaced out for a chill soundtrack to a good LA cruise. The Soundcloud tag on this track (which is a good one to see if you'll like the album) is "west coast"--a fitting description for this sound, which definitely fits into the current vibe of the Southland. You can buy the record today almost everywhere online, a list of your choices is right here.
