DELUKA, Habits & Alligator Indian...Purple Room After Dark
Three amazing LA bands kick off Purple Room After Dark, The Purple Room's New Late Night Series.
Deluka have big dreams and an even bigger sound. The indie synth band, originally from Birmingham, England and currently living in Los Angeles, are gearing up for the release of their highly anticipated EP, BONDS. Recently completed with acclaimed producer Tim Pagnotta (Neon Trees), BONDS preserves the band's artful tapestry of pop, electro, and rock, while embracing an unbridled and uplifting newfound spirit. The anthemic lead single "Home" is a prime example of how the band's buzzing synths entwine with soaring guitars and singer Ellie Innocenti's captivating voice the perfect introduction to the next phase of Deluka.
Habits is the synthesizer/sample based musical vision of Los Angeles based artist and cat owner, Dustin M Krapes. Currently, Habits' revolving cast of live and recording collaborators includes professional wrestling hall-of-famer Dithy Ramb on drums, and vegan taxidermy specialist Gabriel Armenta on bass. Musically, Habits combines driving rhythms, and a psychedelic collage of otherworldly synths as the sonic backdrop to Dustin's lofty metaphysical themed lyrics.
Coalescing on the citrus-encrusted concrete of Central Florida, Alligator Indian's shift in style has continually coincided with founders Christian Church and Spooky Bubble's relocations. Arriving in Orlando after a life in the sleepy beach town of Melbourne, the pair began collaborating while studying classical voice and soon saw themselves combining sugary pop with sound collage. Upon graduation, they journeyed north, settling into a bedbug-infested brownstone in Brooklyn. The very chaos that eventually drove them away from the city first compelled them to find new purpose in their art, and it was in their high-topped hovel that they began capturing their surreal pop and releasing it to the public. Though invigorated by its bustle, the pace of life in New York left the group fatigued and feeling unfulfilled in their urge to be part of a community of artists starting from the ground up. Idyllic visions of the mountains of North Carolina in their heads, Spooky and Christian went south to the solace of Asheville. With a new sense of purpose, Alligator Indian swiftly shifted from blissed-out noise pop to a ritualistic form of modern trance sitting comfortably between the visceral pulse of dance and the cerebral headspace of the avant-garde. It is in this very spirit that Alligator Indian bring you their latest EP, More Songs About Animals and TV, out now digitally and on cassette from Bleeding Gold Records.
