The Burton D'Agostini Procedure – Float Over Here
The Burton D'Agostini Procedure's 'Float Over Here' is a gorgeous psychedelic indie rock single from Grand Rapids, 60s shimmer and modern alt-rock muscle fused into something special
The Burton D'Agostini Procedure know exactly what they're doing here. 'Float Over Here' opens on a wash of a great drums, reverb-drenched guitar that could have drifted in from 1967, but the duo aren't interested in pastiche. The bass sits low and warm, anchoring swirling textures while the vocal floats right where the title promises. There's real craft in how the mix breathes, each element given its own pocket of air. And the hook? It lands soft but stays planted. Brilliant psychedelic pop rock, immersive and beautifully balanced. Cool artwork too.
The Burton D'Agostini Procedure is Jeff Burton and John D'Agostini, a Grand Rapids duo who cut their teeth supporting touring bands before turning inward to make their own records, and we had them on the blog with 'Do You Feel Alright' back in March. This is their second full-length in eight months, out this month, which we'll definitely be checking out. The enhanced stereo mix rewards close listening, pulling you into a sound world that spans decades without feeling like a history lesson. A real gem this one.
