From Grimes' split with d'Eon, "Darkbloom"

Grimes - Vanessa

A joint release by L.A.’s Hippos In Tanks and Montreal’s Arbutus Records, the Darkbloom EP is the title of a thrilling new split by d’Eon and Grimes.  Both rising stars in Montreal's independent music scene, they produced their respective sides independently, though the project was conceptualized together.

Following the Middle-Eastern-tinged R&B of 2010’s Palinopsia, d’Eon’s continuous, circular suite addresses reliance on technology through lyrical content and sonic allusion (for example, “Telepathy” samples cell phone interference).  d’Eon broadens his stylistic breadth through reference to a number of electronic genres.  He simultaneously incorporates elements of (for example) Chicago footwork and new jack swing, but surprises the listener with strange forays into bygone genres such as UK drum and bass and trip hop.

Harnessing the dark energy of her sophomore album Halfaxa with the shimmering dream pop of Geidi Primes, Grimes’s side represents a synthesis of these two sonic personalities. Displaying a level of clarity and craftsmanship heretofore unseen in her releases, Boucher presents a stunning new collection of ethereal dreamscapes that expand her creative palette without compromising the spectral presence she is known for.

Pressing on your ego while you beg for more
Calling out your bluff in every filthy tone
Watch my posture hit you
See me carve through silence
Raw heat wrecks your balance
Tell me how it feels when the whole script breaks around you now

Pressing on your ego while you beg for more
Calling out your bluff in every filthy tone
Watch my posture hit you
See me carve through silence

Pressing on your ego while you beg for more
Take this stained reminder
Huh? Yeah

Huh? Yeah
Huh? Yeah
Huh? Yeah
Huh? Yeah

Mess with me again and I’ll return it twice as vicious
Mess with me again and I’ll return it twice as vicious
Mess with me again and I’ll return it twice as vicious
Mess with me again and I’ll return it twice as vicious

Pressing on your ego while you beg for more
Calling out your bluff in every filthy tone
Watch my posture hit you
See me carve through silence
Raw heat wrecks your balance
Tell me how it feels when the whole script breaks around you now

Trash your little myth now
Trash your little myth now
Trash your little myth now
Trash your little myth now
Trash your little myth now
Trash your little myth now
Trash your little myth now
Trash your little myth now

Huh? Yeah
Huh? Yeah

Who’s the one that shivers when the mirror talks?
Guess that sting is yours, right?

Trash your little myth now
Trash your little myth now
Trash your little myth now
Trash your little myth now
