WL//WH Premiere: BIRDS - "Devil S Dance" [Feed The Void] Blending acid-strewn Electro with twisted Wave and vocal allure, as the title suggests, the track is a dark mysterious exploration of desire and temptation, imbued with feelings of anxiety and danger throughout, instigated by a dance-inducing foundation of obsessively resonant scattered snare beats along with the mechanical shakings of humming low ends, pierced by desolate, shivering icy synths and neurotic squelchy acid lines, through a gripping build-up layering of hot and cold, fast and slow, also heavy and thin frequencies, interpolated twice with calm bewitching female spoken words swathed in reverb, inviting others to join in the “Devil’s Dance” using magnetic persuasion. -------------------------------------------------------------------- When Rotterdam-based, UK-born DJ/producer Birds (real name Katie Wilkinson) began putting together the tracks for her debut album, she realised that there was an ongoing theme to the vocal lines; they all were related to either being at, leaving or returning to some form of ‘home’, most likely because she made the move from The UK to The Netherlands less than 6 months before and was still going through the traumatising visa process. This led her to think about the philosophical question of what exactly is home. The album explores these themes. Genre wise, the album is a deep dive into Birds’ Bass, Breaks and Electro-inspired influences with the occasional signature fuzzy guitar hook reminiscent of her earlier dark-wave material peppered in. -------------------------------------------------------------------- ARTIST: BIRDS (@you_man) LABEL: Feed The Void (@feedthevoidrecs ) TITLE: Home LP CATALOGUE: Home FTV004 FORMAT: Digital ARTWORK: Johana Pejic MASTER: Sam Berdah RELEASE DATE: 26th July 2024 Pre-order: https://birdsoflondonsparadise.bandcamp.com/album/ftv-004-home ------------------------------------------------------------------- Social media links: BIRDS: FB: www.facebook.com/birdsmusicnl Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/intl-it/artist/0ES9ltEN6zPXnUjR7W1whT IG: https://www.instagram.com/birds_nl/ LIintr.ee: https://linktr.ee/birdsoflondonsparadise1 Feed The Void: Site: https://www.feed-the-void.com/ FB: www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61557055012905 BC: https://feedthevoid.bandcamp.com/ IG: https://www.instagram.com/feedthevoidrecs Pre-Order link: https://birdsmusicnl.bandcamp.com/album/ftv-004-home Don't miss the online interview: https://www.whitelight-whiteheat.com/p94onm-nne/
