New tracks from Brilliant Pebbles
Posted by Sasha
Chicago glitterprog extraordinaires Brilliant Pebbles have been posting new tunes on their Soundcloud lately. They've been steering deeper into synth-pop territory since DJ/producer Ross Kelly joined the crew, constructing irradiated dance beats and haunting them with Monika Bukowska's unearthly vocals. It's awfully weird stuff, markedly different from the sounds on their first EP, when they were still recording with drummer Philip Montoro and bassist James Kennedy. I'm now curious as to what their next release with the new lineup will hit us with.

I don't disagree that there is some unique sound here, but I probably wouldn't have chosen the words awfully or weird.
ReplyDeleteI'm dont think that was "awfully weird" is supposed to be negative in this sense it makes them less generic for someone that is still considered "synth pop territory "..so from that perspective it's pretty cool and original.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely wasn't meant to be negative. I'm a fan of BP in all their oddity :)
ReplyDeleteI didn't think it was weird at all. Just corny. Putting reverb on bad vocals doesn't make them haunting. I wanted to like it, the live show was annoying.
