Oxy's Very Own, Nite Jewel, Goes Record Shopping

This is a video posted on Vimeo by "self-titled" magazine.

If you are unfamiliar with the recent Oxy grad, Ramona Gonzalez, and her highly acclaimed music project by the name of Nite Jewel, please reserve time for yourself this weekend and go to any good record store and you will find multiple releases by Nite Jewel. Ramona herself is the principle song writer and singer. Her music is recorded on old 8 Track cassette recorders using old school Roland synths; I'm not sure what drum pad she uses. She then lays her haunting vocals over smooth, funky, danceable rhythms that call notice to lots of older music but introduces it through to a new audience, a new generation, that of her own. To date she has released three 7'' singles, a 12'', and an LP entitled, "Good Evening." For a good listen download or find the tracks "What did he say?" and "Weak 4 Me."Ramona graduated with a philosophy degree from Oxy last year and still lives in Los Angeles. I saw her at a show a couple weeks back actually! Not to mention she played a show in the Tiger Cooler last semester with fellow LA band, Weave!.
