Back in May we learned of the latest album from Garrett Burke, the Philly producer and percussionist known as Gloorp. It’s out in July, and pleasingly, it’s called Gloorp Life. (The last one was called Gloorp ‘Em Up. This guy is good at naming things.)
Today, Gloorp follows lead single “Jeggings” with “Ice Bath,” a new collaboration with Chasia Dokos from Chemical, who have their own new EP on the way. Danny Murillo adds additional percussion. Like the prior Gloorp track, “Ice Bath” is a playful electronic oddity — post-Aphex, post-Matmos, post-Sophie, post-everything.
“Versions of this song can be heard in live sets from well over a year ago, but it really came together when I relinquished control to my collaborators,” Burke says. “Namely, Chasia’s gibberish mumblings and Danny’s deliberate production methods. I don’t remember how I made the percussion sounds, but they sound like mouth sounds to me.”
Listen below.
Gloorp Life is out 7/10 on Jolt Music.
