“The Australian electro experimentalist group, Perth, will soon release their sophomore album, “What’s Your Utopia?”, but first they’ve gone and released a taste of things to come in the form of the soaring single, “Drank and Kites and Tomorrow”. The track opens with a sighing brass arrangement that feels as melancholic as it does triumphant, and is soon joined by layers of skittering beats and heavenly ambient tones. The extended intro pulses alive and soon the the sounds melt into a spiraling electro-psych-pop wonder, drenched in swirling, warm electronics and vocals cloaked in hushed reverb. Before you know it, you’re wrapped in a warped psych pop lullaby that would feel right at home on a Spiritualized record. The track has an exciting sense of discovery that opens itself up like a new dawn sun, expanding further into fertile new territory with each passing second. Perth is a band to watch and “Drank and Kites and Tomorrow” is a track in which you can easily be absorbed. It’s gorgeous, exciting, and confident music and you can grab it for free from Soundcloud while downloads last.”
