WATCH: Single Twin – ‘Kill This Twig’

, , No Comment

 

Our good friends at The Gate featured the lovely Single Twin back in July at the York St Anglican Cathedral, in Sydney. It was the first edition of the the Gate’s incredible Sound/Light/Stone series, which has Wintercoats up next.

‘Kill This Twig’ is a new and as yet unreleased track from Single Twin that allows Marcus to belt out haunting vocals that wind through a mix of drum cracks and soft shakes. It’s all heightened mood and heartache teased out by quivering tones, shot in low red and blue in an immersive place of worship. Very nice.

LISTEN: Forces – ‘World In Focus’

, , No Comment

I like my techno dirty and industrial ya. Forces are a couple of cyborgs (Alex Akers and Thomas Kernot) that have unloaded a new synthetic piece of sound called ‘World in Focus’ – free copy here. That press shot is pretty creepy and it figures as they are label mates with Mel’s fav weirdo Kirin J. There is a Future Sounds of London vibe with a darker Presets vocal. I dig the rapid fire beats and have no doubt this would be crazy huge on a festival stage. The self-titled EP is coming to earth via Midnight Juggernauts’ label, Siberia Records early Dec so keep a bionic ear out for it.
