rEDOLENT capture the euphoric abandon of a perfect night out on their latest indie-dance jam ‘nothing bad will ever happen to me’.
The Edinburgh five-piece lean into the ridiculous optimism brought on by wild nights of revelry. Propulsive beats and bright synths evoke a wildly kinetic energy. Vocal lines walk the line between sincere and tongue-in-cheek as they tempt fate.
Turnbull’s dynamic drums and White’s driving bassline never let the momentum lag. Hancock’s electronics add rich atmosphere, drawing influence from avant-garde dance acts like Soulwax. However,rEDOLENT shape the sound into something wholly their own. Balancing minimalist cool with maximalist euphoria, ‘nothing bad will ever happen to me’ is an instant earworm.
The outfit prove they have their finger on the pulse of carefree hedonism. This is melancholy electronica at its most irresistible.
