Equal parts energy, whimsy, and unfettered ambition, Los Angeles based creative collective NVDES burst onto the scene last year with the release of their first EP Life With Lobsters. Last week, they released a new project entitled La NVDITÉ vol. 1, a frenetically paced pop album laced with catchy hooks, memorable guitar parts and captivating vocals. To accompany the release, they've also released visuals to two of the tracks, "Dancer from New York" and "Sugar".
La NVDITÉ vol. 1 is definitely an experiential listen- from the opening track "May and June", the assembled layers of sound wrap the listener in an auditory blanket that pulls influence from so many sources you're unable to accuse any element of the finished piece of being derivative.
"NVDES is a world I created," says Josh Ocean, the leader of this group of creators pushing out innovative and experimental sounds and visuals into the public eye. I had the opportunity to have a brief exchange with de-facto frontman Josh Ocean. Read it here.
