Twin Wave

Psychedelic pop outfit Twin Wave, based in Brooklyn, NY, released their first single “Relapse” on May 1 2013. “Relapse” is the first track revealed from their forthcoming four-track debut EP. Formed in August 2012, they’ve since worked to craft a diverse array of captivating sunny pop heavy hitters, with shadowy layers of intensity and nostalgia. With a debut sold out show at Pianos followed by a spot at the Tiger Blanket Records showcase at The Bowery Electric in recent months, they are anxiously waiting to share these carefully crafted pop gems with the masses. Pulling from elements of synth pop, psychedelia and trip-hop, they’ve worked to build and tweak their unique sound and atmosphere – fused with a poetic and meditative lyric sensibility. The diverse musical taste of the musicians themselves breathes a cocktail of part Tame Impala and Radiohead, part Frank Ocean and Alt-J, with the goal of not sounding like any one artist or genre in particular. The result is a series of lush pop soundscapes that challenge and reshape the genre. See for yourself on May 1 when they will offer a free download of “Relapse” via their Bandcamp page.
