It’s not one of those overwhelmingly crazy Fridays where I feel like I could spend a million dollars buying records, but there’s definitely some notable releases I wanted to remind you of today, several of which we’ve been repping over the last several months, like our ATH faves, Font. No need to get poetic, as your job is to jam out and find what you love, then go support the artists…so without further adieu.

Sad Eyed Beatniks – Ten Brocades (Meritorio)

Font Share Brand New Single

June 13, 2024 nathan.lankford Leave a comment

I was asleep when this new Font track dropped yesterday, otherwise I would have been on top of it…but we’ve got to rep the ATX scene…particularly as the group are one of the most revered artists currently. While some singles have brought out their more jittery electronic bits, I love the reservation on this latest single. Sure, the electronic elements seep in through the cracks in the tune, but somehow they manage to kind of take some of the energy and hold onto it whilst still building that musical tension. For me, this just hints at what’s made the band so exciting, as you can hear their rock influences being warped by their incorporation of various electronic pieces; this song evolves patiently, never staying complacent, then erupts with these thundering beats. You’re in for a treat when the group drop Strange Burden on July 12th.
