BROOKLYN-BASED RARE DM (REAL NAME ERIN HOAGG) IS CULTIVATING A SIMULTANEOUSLY NEW-YET-NOSTALGIC SOUND FOR HER GROWING AUDIENCE. INSPIRED BY ARTISTS AS DIVERSE AS INTERPOL, KATE BUSH, YEAH YEAH YEAHS AND LADYTRON, HOAGG PRESENTS HER OWN SONIC OFFERINGS IN THE FORM OF DREAMY REVERBERATING VOCALS, SYNTHS, DRUM LOOPS AND EFFECTS. HER FRESHMAN ALBUM, VANTA BLACK, IMMERSES THE LISTENER FROM THE START WITH THE BOUNCY AND HAUNTING “PANAM,” WITH THE ARCH OF THE RECORD INCLUDING OUR MUST-LISTEN PICKS OF “ALMOST A YEAR” AND “SPELL CAST.”
