LISTEN & SHARE: Visuals - "The State of Things"
https://soundcloud.com/visualsmusic/the-state-of-things"Jumping in with reversed soundscapes and a slow, spacious, and pounding beat, Visuals' distinct and savory vocal work flies around amongst the melancholy melodies in a weightless fashion." - XLR8RKnown as Visuals, Andrew Fox's music has arisen in many places and in many forms. First in his native New York City from time spent rummaging days worth of record crates and too many late nights with samplers and synths in various Brooklyn loft buildings and basements. The project gained a more permanent shape upon decampment to Berlin, and in close association and inspiration with longtime collaborators and comrades Darkside (Nicolas Jaar and Dave Harrington.) The culmination of this was Visuals self-titled debut EP via Jaar's label Other People in 2014, which placed the songs on many tastemaker radars. Visuals is set to follow the success with Other People and the lessons learned as a Berlin-nee-NYC producer and multi-instrumentalist, recently returned home, with the announcement of The State of Things EP due March 25th this year. The disc will find a home on Berlin label thesongsays . The first title track was premiered on Self-Titled Mag and the bonus track is now available for free download onXLR8R.TOUR DATES

03. "No Handle"
04. "Everything Flash" (Bonus Track)
Visuals will debut on thesongsays with his beautifully well-rounded novella of an EP, The State Of Things.The label has long focused on the romantic and conceptual currents of dance music and Visuals joins the tight-knit roster with three stunning songs that perfectly fit the thesongsays ethos while bringing together the diverse elements of his musical background. The Brooklyn-based singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist - whose work debuted on Nicolas Jaar’s Other People imprint - excels not only through his distinctive vocal style and melodic richness, but also through the acute subtlety of his lyrical content.The record’s A-side is a case in point: pure tropical melancholia that finds Visuals lyrically sifting through the modern contradictions of everyday life over lambent pads and off-kilter percussion: “I couldn’t tell hell from paradise / I’m so caught up in the state of things.” While the vocals recall the realm of indie, the quirky textures and post-production (courtesy of DARKSIDE member Dave Harrington and Berlin-based house producer and drummer Louis McGuire ) gesture toward the electronic.On the flip, the buoyant bass line of "Days Of Our Youth" anticipates an infectious chorus that feels perfectly anthemic for spring and summer: "Days of our youth on fire / Burning in your eyes." It’s an expertly crafted and arranged piece of music that lends itself to adventurous DJs wanting to give the room something counterintuitive and unusual. Completing the release is "No Handle"—pensive, deep, and hypnotic for the noir corners of early morning dance floors.
