New York synthpop / new wave duo Amiture have premiered the video for their latest single “Baby“.
The track features on their recent second album “Mother Engine”, released last month (February 9) via Dots Per Inch Music. Get your copy here.
Amiture is Jack Whitescarver & Coco Goupil. Their sound blends underground dance music, R&B, British folk, and the blues in a deeply personal way. Positioned between New York City’s nighttime world and the pastoral isolation of upstate New York, Amiture is defined by their shapeshifting playfulness as much as their emotional intensity.
Mother Engine began to take form in a dilapidated garage between a sanitation center and a set of train tracks. Between the tape machine, the amp, the turntable, and the computer, Amiture found magic. Each song is a part of a complex sonic matrix that reflected a vision and a sound neither one could have procured alone, always centered around Whitescarver’s classically trained voice and Goupil’s gritty, tripped-out-guitar sound, merged and then steeped in the traditions of American guitar music, industrial music, and folk melody.
