DESCRIPTION:
Tech / Prog House LP - Pressed on Clear Vinyl - BRONSON was formed when ODESZA members Harrison Mills and Clayton Knight met Golden Features’ Tom Stell at an Australian music festival in 2014. The trio shared a mutual admiration for their respective acts and stayed in touch by sharing music across time zones and continents through Dropbox files and FaceTime calls. Things culminated in 2018 when the three artists spent a week in the remote region of Berry, Australia, recording what would later become their debut BRONSON album.

As indicated by the two first singles, elements of light versus dark run throughout the 10-track album with the theme reflecting the light and dark inherent in human beings. The record combines both melodic vocal songs and moodier, deeper electronica with guest features from lau.ra (part of experimental rock band Ultraísta alongside Radiohead’s Nigel Godrich), acclaimed US R&B singer Gallant and British producer Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs.

ODESZA and Golden Features have a combined streaming total which reaches the billions, and hold multiple gold and platinum singles and albums, respectively. Both acts have remixed and collaborated with an array of renowned artists including Sia, Charli XCX, Leon Bridges, Regina Spektor, Katy Perry among others. Both leaders in live shows, together they’ve reached millions of fans around the world on headline tours, with ODESZA selling out venues including London’s O2 Academy Brixton, Los Angeles’ Staples Center and New York’s Barclays Center, as well as headlining festivals such as Coachella, Bonnaroo, Austin City Limits, Outside Lands and Lollapalooza.


While there are plenty of people rushing to terms like 'tech house' when it comes to Bronson, we're partial to find more fitting descriptions. The ODESZA and Golden Features' producer might be able to deliver something like 'Heart Attack', combining meaty kick drums, lunging low end groove and mournful duet of pitched down and au natural vocals the likes of which we're all familiar with. But there's a lot more than that happening on this debut album. 'Tense' would be a crunching broken techno warehouse job, if it were a little faster, nevertheless its uncompromising beats and gradually building hoovers bring intensity with ease. 'Know Me' takes us somewhere close to future garage, with 'Vaults' picking up from that lead but adding a progressive edge to create a very different, grander atmosphere. A vibe that 'Dawn' masterfully recreates to stadium filling proportions to bring the journey to its conclusion.
