I could mention the scintillatingly cool bass line that snakes through "Disappearance" by Bear Call or the beautiful sort of 70's pop affectionate big down beats, the sense of Beatle-esque meets MGMT-esque shiny divergent pop dreamscapyness (that's, that's a word) or the 90's indie film vocal aesthetic or the smart and kinda mind bending robots meet vocoder enhancements that briefly pop up but I won't because you all have ears.
Instead I will share how this song makes me feel.
1) Like the first time I heard Tears for Fears.
2) Like skating pools on a sun blinding day in 1986
3) The feeling of seeing a fetching couple, handsome cool guy and beautiful woman sharing a dripping ice cream cone as they sit on the edge of a fountain at Mile High Park and I am that ice cream cone.

Oh damn, I don't have one.
The amazingly trippy "Disappearance" is from Bear Call's new album "Systemizer" released on 01/21/22.

P.S. Are multi-instrumentalist/producer Aaron Mortemore and singer/guitarist Skyler Warren also investment strategists??

Bear Call is a collaborative effort between multi-instrumentalist/producer Aaron Mortemore and singer/guitarist Skyler Warren. After meeting in 2015, the two quickly bonded over their obsession of audio production and meaningful songwriting. Following a year of playing local shows, the band released and toured their debut album “Anything’s Better Than Falling”. Upon returning home, they turned their sights onto evolving their sound from a surf-pop obsessed party band, to a texture based psychedelic experience. The result was the band’s sophomore effort “Fancy Acid”. This was not only the duos first fully shared songwriting effort, but also their first venture into recording and producing on their own, turning their garage into a home studio.
