Why do we like this?

One of the most amazing things about music is that there is literally something for everyone. No matter who you are, where you from, what you're into, there is some kind of music that's perfect for you.  w. baer is looking to point that out with his first release "where you fit."

"where you fit." is a track encased with minimal sounds much in the vein of Burial. Where so many artists can falter in trying to build simple tracks, w. baer excels. The track makes the most of negative space, with hints of melody leaking from pianos and synthesizers over off-kilter kick drum while various samples ebb and flow throughout. These simple elements combine in a haunting, yet beautiful way.

Halfway through the track, it  starts to come together. Just like how it feels when you're searching for a happy place where you're comfortable in your own skin, and then you find it. Just like finding that perfect track that sounds like it was written espeically for you.

Keep an eye out for w. baer's debut release, Spalting due out of April 20.
