Origami Vinyl Presents Lilofee on Vinyl!

I'm very excited to announce, if you possibly haven't heard yet, that Origami, the Echo Park based digital record label and vinyl store (and home to Summer Darling), has made the leap into pressing vinyl. This is huge. This is huger than huge. It's been a shared dream for all of us in our little circle of friends, especially Neil Schield, the owner of Origami, to put out vinyl for a very long time. In fact just a short while ago, Neil and I were sitting on his porch overlooking Echo Park Blvd sharing a couple of beers when Neil expressed his interest in opening his own record store out of the storefront just across the street. Obviously the final manifestation of Origami Vinyl on Sunset in Echo Park is the mightiest of all fantasies realized, but the dream certainly started small and has outgrown many of our wildest expectations.

It's only fitting then that San Francisco based electro-pop group Lilofee be the first release on Origami Vinyl. The band's songs suggest dreamy summer days, driving in cars along the ocean, singing along with your best friends or a future one night stand, buzzed and dancing in the sun, in a club, on a porch, barefoot in the sand. There's a certain darkness lurking behind the delivery of the songs, an admission that good times end, but it's this knowledge that makes the other moments more palpable. The band is a long time member of the Origami family, a nod to Neil's own San Francisco days.

The vinyl, released in conjunction with Future Sounds, is a 7" inch featuring "Runaway" b/w "In Flight" and is a limited pressing of 500 on clear vinyl. I've posted the track "Runaway" to tempt your buying buds, so please, go out and support Origami Vinyl and Lilofee by picking up this guaranteed collectable. And what better time to do this than at the release party/release show at Origami Vinyl and the Echo, December 16?!
