This is what Going Left said about Gloom Balloon today.. Also they posted a playlist Patrick made for them.. you got the sunny day blues, @gloomballoon knows how you feel. Patrick Tape Fleming has made a career of tracking the undulating hot and cold climate of his soul, with the Des Moines songwriter’s music sounding as if its made best for bright sweater weather. His song “Long Distance Love (Waterloo Sunset)” captures the bittersweet glow of a bruised heart dipping down under a tropical lagoon’s horizon, knowing it will wake up feeling a little better and shine a little brighter tomorrow.  There’s a tension in Fleming’s music with @grandphonymusic where he wants to feel the love and energy of a group around him, but still yearns for the mellowness and singularity of solitude. His music is made for the weird, lonely wonderfulness of throwing a kick-ass birthday party with cake, streamers and strobes just for yourself. His exclusive playlist for Going Left Music is made for feeling good about being alone, knowing you’ll have someone to love soon.
