Brian Abelson's soul is in a strip mall. Though he's been based in New York for a over decade now, the music he produces as See Other channels the contradictions of his Southern Californian home – all smog-tinted sunsets, contaminated coastlines, and harshed mellows – the euphoric sounds of a failed utopia. His debut EP on Lobster Theremin, Linda, distills this palette into a refined mixture of lightly-sauteed grooves and tinkering wooden melodies that recall some of the finest work from the Drumpoet Community collective.
