Don’t let the somewhat obscure song titles confuse you – deem spencer’s latest EP, "Sunflower," is Mellow with a capital M. From the laid-back atmospheric textures floating behind a hotel-piano-style arrangement in "fucked up flowers" to the flooring, self-aware rap in "soap," spencer’s tracks are vibe-y and musically interesting. He plays with subtlety in production and hones in on his low-key aesthetic, yet maintaining lyrical consciousness and flow. to hear deem spencer’s delightful, airy music live, head to the Knitting Factory on June 9th. – Geena Kloeppel
