RAC - ENDLESS SUMMER TOUR
CommentRAC
will kick off their ten day long Endless Summer Tour on November 8 in
Costa Mesa, CA with three of the most sought after names in Indie Dance: Classixx, Cosmic Kids, and Jerome LOL.
The four will be joining forces to co-headline a series of tour dates
(presented by Red Bull Music Academy) up and down the west coast of
North America this Fall.
There has been an emergence of
underground dance parties where the lo-fi sounds of Indie Music has
blurred the lines with the upbeat sing-along vocals of Pop. A movement
has developed around this feel good sound thanks to singles like RAC's
"Hollywood", Classixx's "I'll Get You", and LOL Boys "Changes". Songs
that conjure memories of summer, they take you to a place that is
nostalgic and warm.
11/08 – Costa Mesa, CA - Detroit Bar
11/09 – Los Angeles, CA - Lure
11/10 - Tijuana, MX - La Mi Ja
11/11 – San Diego, CA - Voyeur
11/15 – San Francisco, CA - Mezzanine

NEW VIDEO: TOUCHE - I'M A MAN NOT A MACHINE
CommentTouché is Alex Lilly and Bram Inscore, a duo that met during childhood, lost touch & and later reunited to combine their musical chops. Touching upon hallucinogenic and esoteric ideas, when the two collaborate they aim to find the place where their psyches overlap. What emerged were anthemic pop pieces darkened by the desires of the human heart and sharpened by some personal politics and explored themes of lust, obsession, fate, and the struggle for control. Touché will release their “I’m A Man Not A Machine” single, containing the infectious track and a remix from Twin Shadow’s Wynne Bennett, on October 30.

I must have listened to their 2009 release Weathervanes a hundred times, their sound is so soothing it takes me to my happy place. Diluvia has the same effect, light and dreamy..... I'm totally in love! MPR made the record available to stream, so take a listen and enjoy!
