Battlehooch unabashedly walks the line between pop sensibility and avant garde experimentation. The band describes their sound as “shape-shifting orchestral rock,” characterizing their tendency to write stylistically varied songs with unique arrangements.
Battlehooch – “Joke†(live)
Bare Wires – “Cheap Perfume”
Bare Wires patent their own brand of electrified garage punk, fusing glam glitter pop with garage punk grime, producing a sound that has been called everything from “Soft Punk” to “Leather Jacket Rock”.
Tartufi explores the boundaries of vocal and instrumental layering, polyrhythmic deconstruction and song arrangement, offering a lush and weighty mix of the band’s compositional sensibilities and sonic daydreams.
Chucha Santamaria Y Usted – “Fiebre Tropical”
Originally hailing from Puerto Rico and New York respectively, ChuCha Santamaria Y Usted is a duo now based in Oakland. Their debut self-titled mini-LP is a head turning mix of pop, dance, italo disco and latin underbelly.
Cannons and Clouds – “Chameleons Migrate South”
Cannons and Clouds assert smartly designed, melody-forward indie rock. Their sound, both wistful and dynamic, is accentuated by slow-building acoustics, classical harp, and rich multi-part harmonies portraying unfeigned ballads and confessional narratives.
