"when I die / unrehearsed / sometimes I find / I feel cursed..."
The blistering electronic sunrise, the glowing emotional vocal reveals of "Lost Drums" by Supermodel, the project of London based sonic artists and film directors Emile Rafael and Joe Connor, is awash in percussive, glitchy tensions stirred by swells of electronica, industrial punk and dream pop intertwined (more than colliding). The persistent grooves rolling under trance like piano chords as a framework for a vocal countenance that appropriately feels lost in some kind of existential soup (primordial or not), feel like freestyle ID declarations and questions.
"but your body's in my mind / hey, your body's in my mind / I lost my mind sometime, sometime / your body's in my mind..."
I am smitten with the ramping up emotionality of "Lost Drums", the growing angst, the longing want and the eventual rage to light. The sounds is sweeping, is cinematic.
LINER NOTES (bracketed):
[The last addition to our very first EP "The Hedge Against Inflation".
THE HEDGE AGAINST INFLATION EP - The culmination of time spent spinning around the earth, a marker in the sea, a beacon.
Start the hard thing, put yourself out there, remould the clay, find common ground, connect.
"The meeting of two personalities is like the contact of two chemical substances: if there is any reaction, both are transformed" - Jung
We've collected our work together with a brand new track "Lost Drums" into this EP - The Hedge Against Inflation.... And the only Hedge Against Inflation is to invest in yourself.

Dark beats, distant hotels, decadence, decay and Post-Brexit. SUPERMODEL is Emile Rafael and Joe Connor. Artists based in London. Are you having a good time?
With strong background in visual art, including filmmaking (both of us are film directors) we like to think our music is very cinematic and explores in dimension in the sound, bending the dance music genre. We have a full album while slowly releasing tracks. "Bowery" is the first single.
