Brooklyn-based Electro-pop Band Twintapes Announce New Single, Synesthesia

"I wrote “Synesthesia” late one night with my headphones on because I didn’t want to disturb my neighbors. I was feeling really inspired by Aphex Twin’s “Selected Ambient Works 85–92”. For this same reason I also didn’t sing on it. This is the first time I have considered releasing an instrumental track, although I have made a few of them, and have been told multiple times by friends and fellow musicians that I should consider releasing an entire album of instrumentals.There is something about not having vocals that makes it feel like I'm breaking some rules—which feels both dangerous and freeing." - Pavel Rivera of Twintapes.

Twintapes performs live Electro-pop with no laptops or pre-recorded tracks.  Pavel Rivera, the band’s creator, singer and composer triggers automated sounds to Landon Knoblock, who mans the synths while Benny Reiner brings the rhythm with an electronic/acoustic hybrid drum set to create an innovative feel that’s more raw than traditional electronic music.
