24-year-old weirdo performance artist Travis Egedy, a.k.a. Pictureplane, obsesses over the cosmos, 90s house music, collective consciousness, and mind-altering chemicals youʼve never heard of. Much like his interests, Pictureplaneʼs music is strange and boundless and totally righteous. Having cut his teeth on raging tours with HEALTH, a collab with Beirutʼs Zach Condon and killer remixes for Crystal Castles, HEALTH, and Thieves Like Us, Pictureplane delivers his first full-length for Lovepump, Dark Rift. Grimy synths, broken beats, and bucolic vocals collide somewhere between early 90s house music and the gnarly soundscapes of Black Dice to forge a sound thatʼs wholly unique and endlessly exciting. Itʼs exceedlingly rare to find dance music that transcends the cold and robotic, but on Dark Rift Pictureplane does just that: churn-Dark Rift Pictureplane does just that: churn-Dark Rift ing out intricate electronic jams out of his near-legendary Denver warehouse space Rhinoceropolis. The music feels at once personal and cosmically expansive.
“Pictureplane combines all the burping, squeaking, farting synth sounds of your local DIY underground with r&b-tinged melodies and raw, expressive vocals” - PITCHFORK MEDIA

There's no thread for this classic Pictureplane album, and I came back to this today, and still love it to bits like I did a decade ago.
