WHAT HAPPENS IN THE BEDROOM . . . GETS PUBLISHED ONLINE
4 songs, 3 patch cords, 2 persons and a handkerchief…And a guitar, 2 capos, 1 omnichord, 1 accordian, 1 trumpet, 1 pair of scissors, several drumsticks, 2, jars, 1 filled, the other empty…et al.
Aidan Knight and Julia Wakal set out to make an EP in a week and Awktober emerged. clacking percussion that demands headphones, muted horns, soft guitars, 2 voices and an particularly pleasant omnichord combine to create dreamy bedroom pop.
And yet this was not the only new offering from Mr. Knight during the month of October. While he has yet to release any work in hardcopy form to his long-suffering fans, the leaf-changing season saw him also release a 5 song EP entitled Hi There in online format, complete with liner notes and album photos. It is a welcome format as opposed to scattered tracks found in various myspace and facebook portals. Here’s to Victoria Pop!
