kairos

We premiered White Hinterland's gorgeous "Icarus" last month, and now Dead Oceans has hooked us up with further evidence of Casey Dienel's unexpected but seamless transformation into seductive minimal R & B/pop star in the form of "No Logic," which is apparently "constructed around a totally acid-fried ukulele part...

Kairos is the adventurous new full-length from White Hinterland, due March 9 on Dead Oceans. Influenced by a move from the East Coast to Portland and her recent listening habits (among other things), the new record finds Casey Dienel eschewing the jazzier/folk steez of her earlier work in favor of spectral, slinky modern R & B and minimal pop -- think Arthur Russell, Glasser, Dirty Projectors
