Another American artist I’ve discovered lately is Papercuts. The San Franciscan, known to his mates as Jason Quever has already released one album - Can’t Go Back - in 2007. This week sees his second long-player You Can Have What You Want hit the shops.

As I’ve discovered, Quever is another man of many talents. As well as producing a fine album (I can’t speak for the previous one), he guests in friends’ bands (Vetiver, Beach House) and records others (Casiotone, Cass McCombs, and most recently Port O’Brien, as he revealed in my recent Seven Songs interview). Despite being a whizz in his studio, he’s let Beach House’s Alex Scally in on the action, helping with some of the arrangements on the new album. If you’re a fan of Scally’s band, you’re bound to like Papercuts, since they share a similar dreamy vibe. However, I prefer Quever’s work - there’s just something about the woozy drone of the vintage synths, his thin vocals, the heavy reverb, and the slow-burning tunes that have gradually caught up with me till I’ve realised just how good this album is.
