Warm Ghost (birth name Paul Duncan) play music best experienced in a dark, damp, basement setting after you’ve knocked back a couple or a couple too many, Duncan’s vocals sounding so dark and echoing that he very well could have railed lines off a vodocer with Ian Curtis. In embracement of our digital age, his songs feature electronic-based instruments such as sythns, drum machines, and processed field recordings, to create listenable, enjoyable, and even danceable (if you count languid head-nods and toe taps) soundscapes of our modern day. In collaboration with Oliver Chapoy, Warm Ghost will be releasing their EP Uncut Diamond (Partisan Records) ion February 15. Don’t miss their CD release party on 02.12 at Glasslands. – Katie Bennett
