Holo - You

Label: Houseum Records
Artist: Holo
Format: 12" Vinyl & Digital
Cat. Number: HSM013
EP Title: Holo
Release Date: June 2024

Holo's debut album is a mixture of old and new tracks, so it contains a diverse set of influences, styles and ideas. It’s this inconsistency, however, that brings the album together. Whether it’s the sudden piano in ‘In Tokyo’, overdriven guitars on ‘Roses’ or percussive video game sounds in ‘Super Nice’, every track has unexpected, contrasting elements that subvert the audience’s expectations and force their attention. The album is as much an expression of his love for music in all its forms as it is a rejection of tropes in electronic music, and it's his best work to date.

He started ‘You’ how you first hear it - with a kick, bass and chords. The voices in the background are his car radio, which lent the track a kind of disassociating feeling. The other elements are inspired by Rimbaudian, Herbert and Denis Sulta - the latter most obviously, inspiring the lead synth which dances around the upper register.

7o7 kickdrum, lean, lucid bassline. Melmaceo. Delicate skinner plucks. Developing. Solitary hat. Snatcher snare. Arborea focale anche. Additional liminal hattage. Corutto sonico. Pleasant enough. Marano. Enveloping, satisfying. Sturdy, full-bodied, yet light. With lil chimes. Plus, whimpering minutiae. Portamento-laden, those are. Stracasting procedure, board of dimensions. Additional ivories. Casati, tilgate. Concoction presents speme aurals, wommel bassline, wizzy lines, and custodian beats. I have listened to this procedure. I am pleased with this procedure.
