Synthesist and composer Emily A. Sprague bridges intuitive sonic structures and expressive songwriting, yielding expansive terrains that are immediate and immersive. From early experimentation with guitar and keyboard as a teen, Sprague went on to form indie band Florist in the early 2010s, gaining a devoted audience. After a series of celebrated EPs, Florist went on to record five studio albums, immediately recognizable for their intimate world-building and Sprague’s emotive vocals.
Emily’s latest solo record, Cyano, is out now on RVNG Intl.

Spike is the synth-pop project of singer-songwriter and composer Hannah McLoughlin. Spike’s self-titled debut album builds on a tradition of idiosyncratic British synth-pop, bringing to mind the cold-yet-intimate work of Rose McDowall, Chris &amp; Cosey, and Fad Gadget. Spike is out now on Gob Nation.

Semiratruth is constantly in motion. The Brooklyn-based, Chicago-born electronic artist travels from stage to stage, bouncing between divergent underground music scenes from the US to Guatemala to The Netherlands, synths and sampler in hand like a teleportation device. Onstage they intuitively conduct the energy in the room, seemingly syncing the audience&#8217;s collective heart rate to a universal metronome. Wielding a table of electronics, they casually tap out sonic portals to another world. Their latest record, S!M, is out now on Sooper Records.

To say that Whitney is more than the sum of its parts would be a criminal understatement. Formed from the core of guitarist Max Kakacek and singing drummer Julien Ehrlich, the band itself is something bigger, something visionary, something neither of them could have accomplished alone.

Based in New York’s Catskill Mountains, Biita Houdei makes folk music that feels both earthy and transportive, blending psychedelic textures with intimate reflections on love, heritage, chance, and the natural world. On This Bed Was Made For Me, her first release under a familial gifted name that means “unique” in Farsi, those qualities come into sharp focus. This Bed Was Made For Me is out now on Father/Daughter Records.
