Goste could be that missing link between humans and machines we’ve all been waiting for. A one man band mixing dizzying electronic loops with soothing, plaintive alt-folk, Goste places a foot in several worlds at once. An unlikely destination a little reminiscent of The Books, and a little of Beth Orton, new EP ‘unlearn/relearn’ highlights these disparate worlds with a remixer’s sensibility for knob twirling. Especially last track ‘To Pretend’ (streaming) where singer Tamsin Wilson (from Deli Record of the Month band Wilsen) adds a mystical ebullience over otherwise schitzoid electronics. Unlike anything we’ve heard all year, listen with headphones and be prepared to hear things a little differently from now on. The band is playing tonight at Leftfield on Ludlow St. "south" – sorry we couldn’t warn you any earlier… – Mike Levine (@Goldnuggets)
