New White Wear: Night In Blue EP

ByPatrick St. Michel

This one is only around for a little while longer, so lets not dilly dally – CUZ ME PAIN project White Wear (formerly :visited and part of Faron Square) has followed up his A Black From White Space EP with another trio of songs, this one titled Night In Blue. You can download the EP here, but you have until Friday before it goes away. This set of songs veers closer to what Faron Square used to do – these are synth-powered dance songs featuring stranger sonic details (vocals/vocal samples mostly), avoiding the ambient leanings present on White Wear’s last EP. Hit the download link now, or listen below.

  • Slow Wonder: Ikebana’s “Rose,” “Kiss” And “Alone”

    ByPatrick St. Michel

    It takes nearly two minutes for Japanese duo Ikebana’s “Rose” to really reach…somewhere. Before that, for all those seconds, the pair create a slowly unfolding iciness that sounds like it might never thaw out. Only when voices…unintelligible, virtually humming…enter into the scene do things start to warm. And even then, it still takes time. Eventually,…
