Sunking - Smug [LP] Vinyl Record

sunking is the experimental sights and sounds of Seattle natives Bobby Granfelt & Antoine Martel, an outlet for the duo whose music is “steeped in funk, fusion, and the dreamier end of the rock spectrum,” said Seattle’s The Stranger. The Stranger also went on to say that “this city needs more groups like sunking, who flit among genres such as hip-hop, jazz, and shoegaze rock while messing with the DNAs of each style they address.”

Both Granfelt and Martel are also members of High Pulp, a jazz collective that draws influences from punk rock, shoegaze, hip-hop, and electronic music. Also signed to ANTI-, their album ‘Pursuit of Ends’ came out in April of this year. “High Pulp blend old-school bebop with contemporary soul and electronica vibes, as though someone convinced the ghost of Duke Ellington to reinterpret a Chemical Brothers album,” said the A.V. Club.
