new music: bloom’s ‘sinses ep’ is an otherworldly ode to longing #soundcheck

There’s something otherworldly about Bloom’s SINSES EP. Sounding something like a transmission of Grace Jones reflected back off the moons of Jupiter, her ethereal voice jumps from a contralto moan to starry heights in the span of a single word. Songs like “XCHXO!” and “Raindrops” glimmer with stardust and longing, while Dylan Brady’ production drapes everything in a veil of reverb and beats just out of earshot. Bloom is a master of the slow build, with album highlight “Imagination” exploding in beauty, pain, and ecstasy. “Have you ever seen stars in the ceiling all alone in your bedroom?”
