Listen : Softaware’s “Shapeshifter”

Softaware is a band fronted by Colin Nance. The band also included Pilar Guarddon, Steven Worlow, and Tony Mahon. They were based out of Oklahoma City and released their debut titled Networks in 2016. It was a mix of electro dream pop with neo-futuristic vibes.

Whales & Drones : Ten Questions With Thousand Foot Whale Claw

The first time I heard the name Thousand Foot Whale Claw I thought it was the title of a new High on Fire record. When I found out that wasn’t the case I may have been mildly disappointed. When I found out that Thousand Foot Whale Claw were in fact a drone loving, synth-heavy Krautrock […]

Jake Schrock’s “Cosmic Ocean”

There’s a very specific vibe that permeates Jake Schrock’s newest track “Cosmic Ocean”. Inside its swelling synths and “come hither” pulse there’s also a sense of impending dread.

The Austin music collective Thousand Foot Whale Claw don’t seem afraid to explore those darker recesses of existence.

There’s equal parts late 60s psychedelia and early 70s Berlin School experimentation happening with them. […]

Graham Reznick : Robophasia

The music of Graham Reznick is hard to pin down. As you listen to his electro-funk grooves you feel as if you’re hearing something strangely familiar one second, then the next it’s as if you’re getting transmissions from some alternate universe where 1980s electro pop is being translated by artificial intelligence. Reznick isn’t settling for […]

Oneohtrix Point Never : Age Of

Daniel Lopatin’s musical worlds are labyrinthine to say the least. A Oneohtrix Point Never record is like some vast, crystalline museum where you bask in the beauty of art, ancient objects, and philosophies that you don’t quite understand but they entrance you nonetheless. Lopatin curates walks through his psyche with each successive record; each one […]

Conjuring Evil : Harglow Talk Horror Scores, Burning Witches, and Blood On The Walls

Photos by Chad Whittle When I think of Oklahoma I think of rodeos, fracking, Oklahoma! ranchers, and the Flaming Lips. Yes my view of Oklahoma is limited by ignorance, but after hearing The Soft Bulletin there wasn’t much else I needed to know. I was good. But then I hear this song called “Candle Wax” […]
