It's safe to say Sydney's a city obsessed with sex. Sexy furniture. Sexy cocktails. Sexy heels and sexy pecs, set to "sexy" house music. Yawn.
If doof doof doesn't get your gears in motion, this V.D. try out something more subtle, less belligerent.
Sydney three-piece Seekae make subtle, ambient electronic pop. The beautiful ebb and flow of debut album The Sound of Trees Falling on People shows how sparse electronic music needn't be clinically cold, dark, cerebral - or menacingly "sexy".
Sounding like Ratatat on Codeine, Boards of Canada, or Slowdive's ‘Pygmalion', T.S.O.T.F.O.P. is an album full of wide-open blue skies over fields of wheat. Highlights include the FourTet hip-hop bob of ‘Crooks', the drone and whirr of ‘Borg', and ‘Wool' featuring amazing vocals from Ivan Vizintin (of Ghoul).
Seekae are playing the Hopetoun's Valentine's Day Appreciation/Depreciation night this Friday at the Hopetoun, alongside Jack Ladder, Tavis Maher (Flying Foxes), Richard In Your Mind, and more. Sounds like a date night.
