Really recommend Katie Gately – Intelligent electro pop with an experimental edge.
Color is a glorious explosion of dance beats, percussive samples, and vocal layers, close to overload, threatening to topple like a Jenga tower. And yet, by her meticulous control and sheer force of will, Katie Gately holds it all together. One of the decade’s most creative artists, she’s managed to translate her avant-garde visions, formerly on display in quarter-hour works, to something even the masses may appreciate.
Let’s face it: pop music is in need of an overhaul, and experimental music can be wonderful, but all too often goes unheard. One thing that holds pop music back is the desire for a hit; one thing that holds experimental music back is the desire not to cross over. Gately exists somewhere in the middle, simply making the music she likes. A lifelong collector of sounds, her former work as a sound editor led her to the reorganization and presentation of sonic…

artist: Marlo Eggplant
title: Internal External
keywords: electronica ambient experimental experimental noise Olympia
Internal External by Marlo Eggplant is an album that clearly hangs on the experimental noise side of the sound spectrum. She seems to open up her inner workings and exposes the abstract sounds of feelings in ways that feel like we are actually behind these thoughts; a backstage of emotional content, one that exposes all her wires and yet are for any foreigner hard to define.
Basic Trust vs. Mistrust’ for example is moving material, a bit like we are on an train ride to the inner depths of the artist her mind, going in deep into the dark abyss of inner workings who are responsible for her outer workings. The sound is sliding through, creating a non grab-able content that could be seen as a tunnel vision of abstract ambient -noise. Over this rails the sound…

On the surface, rap and vaporwave make strange bedfellows. Dig deeper, though, and similarities start to emerge: both genres are concerned with image and illusion—often obscuring the uglier side of life behind a facade of materialism. That’s one of the primary concerns of the groundbreaking Midnight Run, the long-awaited collaboration between vaporwave-pioneer Vektroid and Houston […]

Great to read one artists’ thoughts on another and the last paragraph sums up my feelings about Furchick – fun and pleasure…”half-familiar mangled into a wonderful world that is all her own, a surrealist painting in sound.”
Furchick – Trouble with a capital T (download, dog park records)
Sorry for not having written anything for a while, lately I’ve been generally under-enthused by the experimental scene for all sorts of reasons. I have been searching for new music of course, but what I found was either too ‘mainstream’ for this blog or I didn’t really enjoy enough to write about it.
Then the opening track of Furchick’s album Trouble with a Capital T leapt out at me almost instantly as something I could engage with and that I think will interest you, our dear readers.
That opening track, ‘March of the feathered friends’, is built on the rhythms of some piece of machinery I’m not even going to guess the identity of. It’s alternately insistent and broken up and surrounded by drones that waver in and out. There is clanking and rattling aplenty here and I…
