Menahan Street Band

Midnight Morning / Stepping Through Shadow Menahan Street Band

"Who is t his!?" Whether it's a playlist in a cof fee shop in Brooklyn, a cafe in Par is, or a commercial break

on NPR, the answer is likely Menahan Street Band. Their idiosyncratic brand of atmospheric instrumental

music has lended its timeless cool to countless events, par ties, et al. Now they're back with yet another two

sided head-turner. From the heavy drum fill at the top, to the swirling, psychedelic outro, "Midnight

Morning" is a beat-forward track blending trippy synths with lush horns that sonically beckon you to get

lost in its euphoric swing. "Steppin Through Shadow" paints a cinematic dreamscape that floats along a

surreal plume of hypnotic drum machines, and sof t, electric piano. The gentle melody and operatic vocal

accompaniment disarm, leaving the listener awash in a sea of aural nir vana.
