Pet Town by Eerie Wanda
For Dutch/Croatian songwriter and visual artist Marina Tadic, Pet Town represents time well spent in one’s own shell. Her second LP as Eerie Wanda (and first for Joyful Noise Recordings), Pet Town is a stripped-down spectral manifestation, anchored by Tadic’s wistful lyrics and self-possessed vocal delivery. Mixed by producer Jasper Geluk, the album is perched in warm, homespun recordings—live drums are replaced with handclaps, finger snaps, and a Roland-CR 78 drum machine, enhancing the music’s tactile and intimate headspace. Using minimal recording techniques, Tadic shaped these ten songs on sheer intuition, while drawing inspiration from solitude: how it can be both a state of euphoria but also one of loneliness—of inner meditation and outer yearning.
