Decisive Pink - Ticket To Fame -Angel Deradoorian and Kate NV collaborate on off-kilter synthpop
Angel Deradoorian and Kate NV are Decisive Pink - Ticket To Fame is their highly anticipated debut. After teasing the single ‘Haffmilch Holiday’ the duo amassed a rapturous response, with The Guardian calling it “a space-age-dancefloor swoon that brings to mind Kate Bush’s Waking the Witch” and the New York Times highlighting the single as “substantive and thoroughly hypnotic”. On their first LP they do not disappoint, calling on Kate NV’s experimental pop leanings and Angel Deradoorian’s taste for atmosphere and otherworldliness, Decisive Pink have created a playful and abstract album designed for escape and enchantment. Electronic pop at it’s finest, the debut points to the fact that life is a puzzle, but you can still get a lot from living it. ‘Destiny’ is a smart take on the nature of belief, built on a question-and-answer format, where Angel plays a role as the seer, and Kate the enquirer. The poppy beat is reminiscent of Talking Heads’ ‘The Great Curve’, from Remain in Light. There again, it could be a sinister take on Will Powers’ ‘Kissing with Confidence’. The synth squeaks, squelches and toots sound like the timid affirmation of the initiate. Ticket to Fame is also unashamedly romantic in atmosphere and tone. Romance is to be found in the simple pleasures, such as listening to a blackbird on the instrumental ‘Rodeo’, where warm synths, a melancholic guitar pattern and hissing rhythm combine with some vocal snippets to form a soothing contemplation. Then there is ‘Ode to Boy’; a perfect pop track. The walking into the room of “more than just an ordinary boy” (doubtless “drunk with fire”) allows a set of initially different, and shortened synth patterns to build to a glorious affirmation of the power of love.

'Dopamine' by Decisive Pink
Dressed hair-to-toe in ‘80s Thierry Mugler by way of SHEIN, Angel Deradoorian and Kate NV turn their curious gaze and caustic eye towards the clown show of online consumerism.
Dwarfed by walls of cardboard boxes, they play-act like robots slaving away at your local warehouse fulfillment center. Yet despite being surrounded by all the impulse buys and drop-shipped necessities their hearts could desire, neither finds much fulfillment at their center: “I’m buying stuff I don’t need (now) / I’m hungry, I need to feed (now).”
Of course, this insatiable void devours more than the individual, and “Dopamine” reminds us that capitalism is a sickness tailor made for the social network age; a pyramid scheme built on mutual consumption, more virally infectious and globally spread than any recent pandemic: “Another 10% off if I invite a friend / It’s a pretty good deal for both of us in the end.”
It ends with the repetition of the song’s title, hypnotic enough to lull us into opiate submission as we click to order yet another yodelling pickle toy...
Taken from the duo’s debut album Ticket To Fame. Pre-order here.

A few days ago Decisive Pink (the new supergroup consisting of Angel Deradoorian and Kate NV) dropped a new single called "Destiny", and it's the second taste of their upcoming debut LP, Ticket to Fame. Like their previous single "Haffmilch Holiday", "Destiny" is a groove-flecked cocktail of krautrock, art-rock, funk, and synth pop that never feels overstuffed or forced despite its ambitious construction. Throughout "Destiny" Angel and Kate deliver a series of enveloping harmonies over a motorik floor tom rhythm, lush woodwinds, and a series of snappy synth arpeggios that really drive the action here.
The arrangements and production continue to impress, but it's the vocal interplay between Angel and Kate that really elevates "Destiny" beyond what might otherwise be just another great song from them. The adventurous sensibilities of each respective artist shine through the pacing and rich sound design showcased throughout "Destiny", but the execution is far greater than the sum of its eclectic parts. "Destiny" and "Haffmilch Holiday" are both extremely promising singles that widen the scope of each respective artist's sound without ever quite extending their reach. TtF is shaping up to be one of the strongest records that either artist has ever released.

Kingston After Dark: The Body/Head connection (backup of my interview from 2019)
1991: The Year Punk Broke was pretty much my almost daily afternoon home video consumption in high school after cutting class and taking acid during the day.
I cannot understate how much the classic noise-rock and grunge-era tour documentary meant to me and opened my mind, heart and ears to a lifetime of appreciating bands with edge, passion and a feminist streak, not to mention the joy of seeing Sonic Youth’s Kim Gordon clowning around with Kurt Cobain.
I never thought decades later I would get a chance to talk to Gordon myself. Her fabulous noise landscape painting band Body/Head (with fellow guitarist Bill Nace) has a sophomore record called The Switch out on indie giants Matador Records as of July 13. It is an unromanticized-yet-meditative collection of moody guitar swells and poetic fragments as well as an excellent boundary-pushing follow-up to their 2013 debut Coming Apart and 2016 live album No Waves.
It was a genuine pleasure for myself and my partner Elizabeth Gomez (a.k.a. psych folk singer Globelamp) to interview Kim and Bill before their upcoming BSP Kingston back room theater appearance on Friday, July 20.
Morgan Evans: BSP is a great, non-corporate venue that has grown out of community love and involvement. How did you end up stopping here?
Bill Nace: Someone offered for us to play there and it fit into our routing. I don’t know much about Kingston. I saw Television once. My friend Angel [Deradoorian] opened. There is a poet, Ben Estes, who actually used to live with Kim who I think lives up there now and runs a publishing imprint called The Song Cave. Is Grasshopper from Mercury Rev still there?
Morgan: Yeah, he’s my friend! I am hoping he will do a song with me on my next Walking Bombs album. Kim, I wanted to know if you saw The Center Will Not Hold documentary on Netflix about Joan Didion. I know you mentioned her in your memoir, Girl in a Band. Did you like it?
Kim Gordon: I did. I thought it was pretty fluffy, but I liked learning she would get up in the morning and wear her dark glasses to have a Pepsi for breakfast.
Morgan: I remember that part! It was amazing! Your music in Body/Head is so expansive. There is a lot of debate right now about visibility and why music called “experimental” is often given that category when it is made by white people and not by other races. Everyone can experience things in a unique way, even through a pop song. What was some formative music that made you start to dissect music in a different way and opened your mind? Your records are kind of an experience rather than someone performing a genre.
Bill Nace: That’s a big one. I think experimental is such a weird phrase. We are not experimenting. We know what we are doing. Experimental is like a word that is seen in contrast with pop music. I never feel like I am commenting on pop music or trying to deconstruct that. It is more our own thing. Everyone thinks of pop music as the norm but that doesn’t have to really be the case. There are unlimited access points into music.
Elizabeth Gomez: Kim, I’ve been in the music scene only a little bit and have encountered a lot of sexism. I can only imagine how much you have, being such a pillar in the scene for so long. As a rock icon, do you have any advice for women who want to keep focusing on their art and drown that stuff out?
Kim: I would just … play louder [laughing]. It’s no different than anywhere else, the culture. I guess I got used to working from a position as a bass player that was sort of a supportive role, initially. If you are not directly in the limelight you can be more observant about things and kind of … I don’t know. It’s so normal to be in a male dominated society that it’s kind of … I guess my bar of expectations is a little bit low. [Laughs.] Especially right now with a Supreme Court opening and everything. At the same time, you can’t really stop energy. The wrath of millions of women will be really hard to contain if Roe v. Wade gets really fucked with. It’s coming to a head, in a weird way. I hope it’s not coming to a head in like a “the end of the world” way [laughs].
Elizabeth: The bar is kind of low. I know what you mean. Our president is Trump.
Kim: I guess I am used to working with limitations, is what I am saying. I kind of like that, in a way. I make it work for me. By people not expecting certain things from you, you can kind of surprise them.
Morgan: So, the song itself and song title for your track “Change My Brain” jumped out to me. People cry about “fake news” and trolls try to muddy the waters online so people can’t determine facts anymore. It makes gaslighting easier. We all have some cultural biases, but you can just hear a song and it can make you relax or feel unity at times. That piece was strong and has a great crawling tension build. Music can reset our brains sometimes back to a better reality.
Bill: For us, we try to go in and focus and play. We play and then go back to what we have done and a world and thread happens without us trying to steer it. “Change My Brain,” I came up with that name on tour a few years ago as a possible 7-inch title. We had been on tour for awhile and I just felt insane. I think we like titles like that that are really open so the listener and audience are active participants, rather than putting a fine point on anything.

The Soft Pink Truth - Is It Going To Get Any Deeper Than This? - deep house album (with several twists) by Drew Daniel of Matmos
Thrill Jockey is pleased to announce the return of The Soft Pink Truth, the solo electronic project of Drew Daniel, one half of Baltimore-found sound duo Matmos. Asked to explain his new album’s gauntlet-throwing title, Drew Daniel says: “Years ago a friend was DJing in a club and a woman came into the DJ booth and asked ‘is it going to get any deeper than this?’ and the phrase became a kind of mantra for us. What did she really want? This album was created as an attempt to imagine possible musical responses to her question.” Throughout the ten songs of the album, the provocation to go “deeper” prompts promiscuous moves across the genres of disco, minimalism, ambient, and jazz, sliding onto and off of the dancefloor, sweeping higher and lower on the scale of frequencies, engaging both philosophical texts re-set as pop lyrics and wordless glossolalia. Rather than a dryly pursued thesis, the music flows across emotional terrain from upfront peaks to melancholic valleys, often within the same song.
The Singers and Speakers: François Bonnet: Speech on “Deeper Than This?” Erica Burger-Hannum: Singing on “Trocadero” and “Deeper” Daniel Clark: Singing on “Deeper Than This?” Angel Deradoorian: Singing on “Deeper Than This?” Eléonore Huisse: Speech on “Deeper Than This?” Rose E. Kross: Voice on “Joybreath” Jamie Stewart: Singing on “La Joie Devant La Mort” Id M Theft Able: Voice on “Sunwash” and “Deeper Than This?” Jenn Wasner: Singing on “Wanna Know” The Players: Drew Daniel: Electronics, Backing Vocals, Piano, Production, Mix M.C. Schmidt: Piano, Electric Piano, Synthesizers, Percussion Jason Willett: Bass Guitar Mark Lightcap: Electric and Acoustic Guitar Úna Monaghan: Irish Harp on “Wanna Know” Obadias Guerra: Harp on “Now That It’s All Over” Tom Boram: Harpsichord Koye Berry: Piano Ulas Kurugullu: Violin, Viola, Cello, String Arrangements Nate Wooley: Trumpet on “Moodswing” Andrew Bernstein: Saxophone on “Deeper” John Berndt: Saxophone on “Sunwash” Brooks Kossover: Flute on “Deeper” Shelly Purdy: Vibraphone on “Sunwash” Ayoze de Alejandro Lopez: Percussion John Wiese: Broken Glass All songs by The Soft Pink Truth except “Now That It’s All Over”, which was written by Willie Hutch. This record was created in honor of a mysterious woman who walked up to a friend while he was DJing and asked “is it going to get any deeper than this?”
