Beige is definitely one of the colors least likely to be associated with rock music – and Brooklyn’s own Beige aren’t exactly a rock band. Their mostly electronic tunes blend the obsession for percussive, somewhat intricate repetition of the German Kraut Rock scene of the 70s with a more modern dream pop aesthetic. Playing with static arpeggios that serve more than one chord, almost fading their verses into choruses, Beige’s music is anything but assertive, but it’s consistent, wise, slightly abstract, definitely mystic – like the color that names them. See them live at Glasslands on Tuesday July 5th.
