GAYNGS’ vocalist Channy
Casselle and Producer Ryan Olson bring together their love of electronic
adventurism with pop sensibilities and soulful vocals on their latest project
Polica.
Give
You the Ghost is a playground of textured synthesizers, processed vocals
and electronic sound-scapes with tracks like “The Maker” a staple of the
album’s lush sound with Casselle’s soulful yet over produced vocals and
programmed drums. Bon Iver’s Mike Noyce makes a cameo on two of the duo’s
tracks including “Lay Your Cards Out” adding vocals to the rich swirling synth,
R&B rhythms that’s tweeked and contorted by Olson for a track that’s both
cinematic and hypnotizing in its sound.
Beneath
the swirling layered mass you’ll find a soulful record in Give You the Ghost that despite all the manipulation of Casselle’s vocals
she manages to convey a bluesy-soul adding depth to Polica’s music, making for
an album that’s both majestic and sultry.
