Nobody is 25 year-old Elvin Estela. His debut, "Soulmates" was a hip-hop/cosmic jazz statement springing from early studio days and back alley freestyle sessions. Now he shows a different shade of his soul. On "Pacific Drift", sunshine melodies ride on heavyweight rhythms as acoustic textures sparkle into dub. Estela flips his favorite 60's psychedelic masterpieces into new expressions, including covers of the Zombies, the Monkees, and the West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band. He salutes the Byrds, Beach Boys, and Love while shaking hands with Manitoba, DJ Shadow, and Prefuse 73. Featured collaborators include members of the Postal Service, Mars Volta, Dntel, and Beachwood Sparks.
