Delta of Venus – ‘Disengaged/Slipping’
Hailing from the United States, Delta of Venus have released the stunning singles, ‘Disengaged’ and ‘Slipping’. They are art-rock releases that stand out from the crowd this December.
‘Disengaged’ is a superb single that opens to punchy instrumentation. As the vocals enter, they instantly take the reigns of the song and effortlessly guide the audience through an engaging sonic expedition.
In addition, the dynamic musicianship and charismatic vocal performances take the listener on a journey. We adore the addictive melodies that drive the track along and captivate the audience.
‘Slipping’ has an atmospheric opening that evolves and transcends into funky bass lines and driving beats. Moreover, the lyrics are introspective and stay with the listener long after the music has ended.
Also, the feel of ‘Slipping’ is darker than ‘Disengaged’ and this juxtaposition of the tracks showcases the intelligent compositions beautifully. Furthermore, the mix, production and master have been executed superbly and take both songs to another level.
Comments
Delta of Venus comments about the composition of the pieces, “There are no verses, there are no choruses, there are no solos. Instead, musical movements revolve around each other, creating an architecture that adds definition to the indeterminate description of shoegaze.” This innovative songwriting approach sets Delta of Venus apart from the crowd.
1993
Having formed initially in 1993, Delta of Venus released a full-length album in 1997 but has not released any fresh material until now. We are thrilled to have heard ‘Disengaged/Slipping’ and thoroughly recommend checking out band member Ellery’s solo projects ‘REVENGE’ and ‘RESULTS’ too.
Genre
Delta of Venus are masters of crossing the shoegaze and pop genre. The result is a unique sound that draws the listener in and captivates our attention effortlessly.
So, add ‘Disengaged’ and ‘Slipping’ to your new release playlist this week! Delta of Venus are a force to be reckoned with, and we can not wait to hear what they will do next.
