hihowareya!Oxford Mississippi native Deepak Mantena of creative pop-project Junk Culture developed the sound for his newest release, Summer Friends, from a lifetime collection of sounds he’d captured on a handheld recorder. Drawing on inspiration he found in the vibrant harmonies, psychedelic noises and dance rhythms that saturated his environment, he created alluring melodies using guitar, keyboard, and percussion and topped them off with choruses of his own explosive vocals.
With influences that range from Caribou, Animal Collective and The Beach Boys, Man Man to MF Doom and Fennesz, his new songs have transformed significantly from his last record. Don’t forget to check out Junk Culture on MySpace, Facebook, and his official site.
