Forever ☆ Announce Second Gen Dream
When one thinks of the intersection between styles, I probably wouldn’t have placed a bet on an eclectic brand that blends rapid techno beats with the noise of shoegaze, yet here we are with the latest from KC’s Forever ☆ (Forever Star). They’ll spend today hyping up the news of their new Second Gen Dream EP, and you’ve got to hear it to understand just how harmoniously it all fits together. The first minute or so is dominated by the steadfast beat, rapidly rushing at the listener, but if you dive in close, you can hear the curtain of noise starting to sway in the background. As the distortion drops into the picture, the beat stays consistent, creating this disorienting euphoria that’s best when it’s punctuated by the dueling vocal harmonies at the center. I love how they never seem to stray, even when an added guitar layer looms at the tail end, they stay true to the formula, almost tightening it; it’s here where you realize just how seamlessly the group sewed these two styles. Their new Second Gen Dream EP will be available as a 12″ courtesy of a La Carte Records.

Going to be a bit of an off week, as RayRay is out on vacation, and I head out on the latter half of the week, but that doesn’t mean we didn’t crush it last week. I was finally able to let the cat out of the bag about new music from Heavenly/Swansea Sound; RayRay dropped the premiere for new ATX powerhouse, Porcelain. Oh, and B. Gray was coming through with sick photo work from Kilby Block Party and OMD, so we’re really just trying to make your musical world better. There’s a bunch of sweet jams, though I’ll admit I’m really loving the Slow Summits new tune, as well as the cover by Glass Spells.
