Today's Tune: Trust - "Bulbform"



If you saw my year-end best of list, you know I love Austra. Since I can only listen to that album so many times before craving at least a new scrap or tidbit, I was happy to be exposed to Trust's  "Candy Walls".

The duo of Robert Alfons and Maya Postepski (who happens to be in another band by the name of... Austra) fashion mid-tempo minimal techno like dark chocolate truffles: bittersweet and bracing with a glisteningly moist centre. After their 7" release of "Candy Walls", the excellent Sacred Bones Records (home to Zola Jesus, among others) released a second 7" single: "Bulbform". Darkly erotic dance music won't be ignored for long, though, so it looks like Trust have been snapped up by Arts & Crafts and are set to release their debut full-length, TRST, on February 28th.
