Alps – “Dead Scene” – [Past Future Presents]

Australian Chris Hearn is Alps. On this 7inch you will hear very minimal, jangly, garage, noise rock sounds, done mainly with drums, organs and some guitar. Track 1 is very simple with some lo-fi muffled spoken words. Track 2 is more melodic, poppy and upbeat with sounds of handclaps, popcorn popping like sounds and very soft vocals. Its a very sweet track. Track 3 has some very odd percussions that I can’t figure out maybe some pots & pans, kazoo or whistling? Dead Scene was recorded in one day and is limited to 200 copies.
