Nite Jewel

Nite Jewel. Damn. I was lucky enough to discover a while back  her as I was clicking through some podcasts by the Stones Throw label (you know, Quasimoto, Aloe Blacc, Mayer Hawthorne...get familiar) She takes trance electronic and a decades old disco vibe and makes it her own groovy business. Her voice exudes a soft, passionate yearning; I think she has acid on her lips and I love it. The melancholy, ethereal sound of the synthesizers are what really piqued my interest but her music videos are just as interesting. She's a very interesting woman...fun fact, Nite Jewel (Ramona Gonzalez) is a recent graduate of Occidental College *word to Obama* where she studied philosophy. Her music is all over my playlists, enjoy!
