Fall Breaks – Trainwrecks & Tambourines

Fall Breaks - Unmarked

Sometimes it takes me months of brooding to find something to write about a song I like. And sometimes I get inspired to write on the first listen. That is what happened to Fall Breaks, self-described as “the recording project of a 16-year-old music nerd” to which I add that he is from Uberlândia, Brazil. I’ve been in love with his Unmarked EP (his fifth, according to Bandcamp) since yesterday. Laid back, synth-driven indiepop that occupies the space somewhere between Sarah Records and Jesus & Mary Chain. Of which there is quite a lot these days. But this is really good.

There’s some kind of About page at the bottom of the first post. There is an Instagram account and also a Bluesky account and a playlist on Tidal. I am Martijn and this is my personal-professional website.
