Nightswimming Highly Recommends foamboy’s “Propulsive” Sound

Nightswimming “highly recommends” STUPID HOT, the new LP from foamboy. “Portland duo Katy Ohsiek and Wil Bakula,” they write, “combine forces to weave a dreamy, propulsive work, full of danceable electro-beats and synthesizer hooks, as eclectic as it is electric. The first listen of this album was a revelation, and every subsequent listen has revealed something new. It’s atmospheric and breezy, but the beats and the synths are no joke. It’s for the dancefloor, or for pretending you’re on a dancefloor while you’re updating spreadsheets in your cubicle. STUPID HOT is not just fun. Ohsiek really emotes through the vocals, and the melancholy lyrics clash up against the upbeat instrumentals to convey a feeling all too familiar—smiling through it.”
