Quieter

Carla Bozulich/The Night Porter • "Sha Sha"

Audacious, clamorous, queer, rare, exuberant... had to dig deep on thesaurus.com to find the perfect words to describe galen tipton's beast of an album, "nightbath."  A superlative in audio mixing and composition, galen paralyzes listeners with a wash of textures before plunging into the most satisfying dance tune of 2018 on "whisper," the lead single, becoming a perfect antithesis of the song's title.  "nightbath" promises many more surprises, and features a whopping 15 collaborations throughout, showcasing galen's excellent ability to curate sound between multiple creators.  Only comparable to other producers out there pioneering electronic music such as Iglooghost, Sophie, and Arca, "nightbath" is the crystal ball showing us the future of dance, sound, and compositional expression.  Releases July, Friday the 13th on DESKPOP™.
