As the Basschat community has always been fantastically supportive in checking out new music, we released our first brand new music in over a year. “Gloss” is out today via Ray Records and streaming on all the usual platforms. As always, we collaborated with Haunting the Atom to make this fun video. 
 

For anyone wanting a bit more background, it’s influenced by the post punk bands of our youth. I wanted a Stooges / Velvet Underground simplicity to the music (one note solo and bass line) but with an intelligent lyric. It isn’t typical of next year’s forthcoming third album and is probably the rockiest track we’ve written. Filmed in my house (which stunk of incense for several days afterwards), we had a blast doing this.

Loved it, will buy the album when it comes out, really liked the writing on the mirror thing, cool video and a great song :)

Great song and video. Loved the lipstick writing and removing letters to make new words/meanings. I liked the bass drone and the sound used for it - bass guitar plus pedals or bass synth (or both)? And, for a reason I can't explain, I really liked the countdown at the end.

 

Good luck with the album release.

Thank you 🙏 The bass guitar has added distortion and chorus. It’s from the producer’s sound bank rather than my board - he thought it sounded better and I am happy to be guided here. I added the drone note on the synth but that’s in a slightly higher register. It does all add to the mix.
