LIST PICK
GOLDEN VESSEL STATESIDE (FEAT. AKUREI)
Golden Vessel has recently dropped his second album, colt, and it is as impressive as we expected it to be. Each of its eleven tracks delve into a unique blend of alt-indie-electro-pop, but it is ‘Stateside’ that really grabbed our attention. There is an uplifting vibe to be found exuding from Golden Vessel’s lead vocal, but through pitch-shifted bass guitar parts, there is an interesting feeling of uncanny unease threading through the track. Interestingly, this was “one of the first songs I made for the album and helped direct the sound... The 2nd verse was empty for over a year and finally Connor (Akurei) added the nicest little verse on top of it.” Have a listen to colt in full. -Dan Peeke
