Here are some smooth, looping incantations from Guerre, an angelic voice from the bustling, metropolitan dunes of Sydney, Australia. Singer and knob-turner Lavurn Lee brings together minimalist neo-soul and tribal hymns using only pedals, a microphone, and his pipes as the apparati of melody. This intimate video performance hits its upswing about two minutes in, at which point the layered beauty becomes transcendent. Filmed by No Dice Paradise. --Ryan Ellis, Weekly Tape Deck

Guerre's debut Darker My Love EP is out soon via brand new Sydney imprint Yes Please Records. On June 9th, the label is launching another EP's worth of Darker My Love remixes-- that's right, ahead of the originals
