Motel Motel’s Erik Gundel new electronic project

Erik Gundel, from recently dismembered Brooklyn band Motel Motel, has just released the debut EP for his new solo electronic project. Erik’s tracks aren’t in any way reminiscent of his previous band’s work, dwelling in a more electronic and experimental territory. The slow paced loops, mixed with abundant atmospheric noises and gentle sax stabs, bring back to mind a less funky version of… Funky Porcini, while the sophisticated vocal harmonies refer to more recent avant artists like Dirsty Projectors and Grizzly Bear. Overall a very interesting debut.
