LA-based Hologram Teen (aka Morgane Lhote) returns to Ransom Note Records with a third album entitled “Day-Glo Chaos”, an unabashedly nostalgic musical love letter to the 1980s. 

Offering a mixture of cinematic strings, 80s French pop, video game soundtracks, a dash of Drum and Bass and vocoder vocals, this album feels like living in a vintage arcade.

Inspired by LA life, vintage video games, coffee-fuelled musical experimentation, Baroque keyboard parts, Neil Young’s “Trans”, and 1980s French pop culture, Hologram Teen found elements that contributed to the creation of ‘Day-Glo Chaos’, but that’s not all.

The basis of the album was a synth sound that the artist created for the song “Dalston Wizardzz” on her previous R$N outing “Pizza Conspiracy”. Morgane liked its airiness and soundtrack-like vibe and wanted to build a collection of songs around it, with those string pads as the starting point and backbone for all the new tracks in ‘Day-Glo Chaos’. What started as more cinematic tracks quickly evolved into kinetic and upbeat 80s pop songs.

The first single, 'Valley Nights (Burnin’)', is a synthy ode to the 80s and evokes Hologram Teen’s love story with her home base in Los Angeles and driving through the city at night. It’s suddenly 1983. You’re driving a DMC DeLorean through a bright tunnel whilst the need to sip on a cold beer invades your thoughts. 'Valley Nights (Burnin’)' is playing on the radio and that’s all you want to hear right now.

Lost Control w/ Vincent Floyd & Black Eyes - July 2023

Images Of Spring

Remember Me (Short) ver 2

Vincent Floyd came on the scene with the release of "Your Eyes" on Dance Mania Records in 1990. Serene and thoroughly musical, "Your Eyes" left no doubts about Floyd’s talent as a writer nor his production prowess. 
Vincent would explore this musical territory further on “Cruising (Long Ride),” released on Resound Records, the label he started through a P&D agreement with Gherkin Records. Inspired by long drives up Lake Shore Drive, the road that runs along Lake Michigan for almost the entirety of Chicago, the 12 minute long track is hypnotic and mellow, wrapped in dreamy pads and laced with whirling pitches and heavenly leads.
In 1992, Floyd went on tour as a keyboardist with Larry Heard AKA Mr. Fingers, then on MCA Records.  Vincent kept amassing unreleased tracks. Some eventually found their way onto EPs for Cajmere’s Relief Records in 1995 and Mindfood, Rated X Records and Subwoofer in 1996.
After obtaining a Bachelors in Music from Chicago State University, and a Masters of Arts degree from Roosevelt University, Vincent worked as a music teacher for Chicago Public Schools.
In 2014, after Vincent Floyd met Antal Heitlager, head of powerhouse Dutch label Rush Hour. Antal set in motion an ambitious reissue campaign that includes an entire album’s worth of previously unreleased material called “Moonlight Fantasy.” Vincent came back to make up for lost time and, in 2016 he released his first EP on his own Dawn Notes Records.
Floyd is currently Djing, recording and remixing with clubs and record labels around the world.
