the FamiliaR IntercoursE of SocietY – “[email protected]”

“[email protected]” is an intriguing new single from the FamiliaR IntercoursE of SocietY, the Amsterdam-based collaboration of longtime friends Gish and Ilja Reijngoud. Gish’s multi-instrumentalist work in various bands converges with Ilja’s talents as a professional jazz trombone player, resulting in a darkly intoxicating track with late-night allure.

Described by the duo as “a raw song about free and boundless minds chasing the elusive unknown,” “[email protected]” engrosses with its suave guitar distortion, horn-laden atmospherics, and hypnotic percussion. The brassy envelopment approaching the two-minute presents with ample momentum, especially upon the synth arp’s emergence amidst the eerie, shadow-y vocal turn. Full of dimly lit mystique, “[email protected]” is a stirring accomplishment from the FamiliaR IntercoursE of SocietY.
