MP3 of the Week: Avoxblue "Dreaming Thru Your Eyes"
As Boston’s electronic solo projects continue to emerge from bedrooms and DJ booths and onto a rock-club stage near you, the sonic scope of these artists continues to expand. Jimmy Rossi’s Avoxblue has raised the bar with “Dreaming Thru Your Eyes,” a crystal dagger of an underground synth-pop journey with both the ocean-floor depth of a full band and the pop personality often lacking in experimental machine music. At more than six minutes long, it’s an emotional and orchestral maneuver in melodic darkwave — a distinct departure from Rossi’s day job with psych-rock veterans the December Sound. An EP may transpire later this year; meanwhile, Avoxblue performs live with Glasser and Violens upstairs at the Middle East in Cambridge this Tuesday, November 9 (while Lights bangs her own keyboards downstairs). And you can grab the “Dreaming Thru Your Eyes” MP3 below.
