Shocking Pinks - St Louis (Sun Glitters remix)

“Awesome experimental hip hop…” – BBC Introducing
“Ruane Maurice are masters of painting a sonic mise en scéne…” – VICE / Noisey
“Ruane Maurice’s gloomy hip hop appears totally adult, with the guys taking on the responsibility of leading UK hip hop into a new musical future.” — Eclectic Collective

Ruane Maurice are a young and visionary electronic UK hip-hop band, mixing early-90s slow jam melodies with the sonic adventurism of musique concrète and the sultry darkness of early industrial bands.

“Peaked” is the third and final single from their upcoming, self-titled debut album "Ruane Maurice", scheduled for release via Brooklyn label, Stars & Letters Records, on September 9th 2014. “Peaked” premiered via Eclectic Collective: http://tr.im/1L7iz

Spark And Smoke

The empathy test in Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner is based on the premise that machines, no matter how advanced, lack compassion. But for childhood friends, Isaac Howlett (vocals) and Adam Relf (production), Empathy Test is all about wearing their hearts on their digital sleeves. With driving synth chords, punchy 4/4 beats and euphoric ‘80s melodies, the London-based duo take inspiration as much from modern acts like Chvrches and Purity Ring as they do from Vangelis and Depeche Mode. But far from sounding like just another ‘80s-electro reboot, Empathy Test have cultivated a mesmerizing and immersive identity which sets them apart from pretty much anyone else on the scene.

With an insistence on glorious hooks and instantly memorable vocal lines, Empathy Test are refreshingly unafraid to be pop music. Since self-releasing their debut EP “Losing Touch” in February, Empathy Test have picked up thousands of fans via sheer word-of-mouth and late-night tweets, and collaborated with Richard Swarbrick on numerous viral animation videos for ESPN and Liverpool FC. Empathy Test signed to Brooklyn’s Stars & Letters Records in the spring of 2014, with their follow-up EP “Throwing Stones” releasing December 9th, 2014.

The empathy test in Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner is based on the premise that machines, no matter how advanced, lack compassion. But for childhood friends, Isaac Howlett (vocals) and Adam Relf (production), Empathy Test is all about wearing their hearts on their digital sleeves. With soaring synthetic chords, precision beats, and jubilant 80s melodies — all coated in soft, irresistible melancholy — the London-based duo takes inspiration as much from modern acts like CHVRCHES and Purity Ring, as it does from Vangelis and Depeche Mode. But, instead of sounding like a mere update of 80s’ electro, Empathy Test produce a mesmerizing and immersive identity which sets them apart from pretty much everything else currently on the scene. Shadows envelop hymns, a note sustains too long, a lyric confesses too much: It’s the heart of darkness, not compassion, that beats slow and steady.

While the lingering nighttime aesthetic that Relf conjures up provides the initial hook, Howlett’s vocal mastery pushes the stakes ever higher, providing the urgency and romanticism to Relf’s crystalline production. Little wonder that the duo has amassed a sizable and passionate online following: With an insistence on glorious hooks and instantly memorable vocal lines, Empathy Test are refreshingly unafraid to be pop music. Since self-releasing their debut EP “Losing Touch” in February, Empathy Test have picked up thousands of fans via sheer word-of-mouth and late-night tweets, and collaborated with Richard Swarbrick on numerous viral animation videos for ESPN and Liverpool FC.

Brooklyn's We Are Temporary takes on "Gods & Monsters" by Lana Del Rey in a cover that brings out the song's latent darkness and natural heft. Premiere via IX Daily → http://tr.im/1WDRJ

Blending darkwave, EDM, ambient, and electronic post-rock, We Are Temporary oscillates between musical violence and frailty, lyrical defensiveness and vitriol, bursts of optimism and crushing nihilism. His debut album "Gemini" is set to release February 2015 on Stars & Letters Records.
