The track builds off of their otherworldly nature only this time F I N K E L\u00a0explores a more ominous space with an array of analog synths and a charming lo-fi 80s vibe.

With an atmosphere treading the periphery of pop, the duo&#8217;s tangible vocal presence overlays hypnotic electro pulsations in a combination that teases out details of last night&#8217;s otherworldly dreams and tempts the waking state to return to its astral analog.<\/p>\n<p>Not quite definable by conventional genres, their avant-garde sensibilities will appeal to an audience seeking a respite from the pedestrian daily grind and typical expectations. There&#8217;s an enchanting quality that pervades the work of this singing and songwriting combo. Their lyrics explore themes of love and desire; understanding oneself and one another beyond surface qualities; and questioning the status quo. With every track, they&#8217;re suggesting we take another, closer look because what we think we see and hear just might deserve inspection.<\/p>\n<p>A tale of two spirits unravels curiously from the seams of F I N K E L&#8217;s new singles. Their ethereal synthetic textures and rich vocal harmonies produce an aesthetic that grabs attention and gives it a nudge. The result somehow distills the mood of a strange day&#8217;s fleeting moments into a potent, lingering hex. Like the feeling of a passing glance with a mysterious stranger, we&#8217;re left assured we just encountered something ineffable and wondering if someone else felt it too.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Just in time for Halloween, LA-electropop duo, F I N K E L, have released\u00a0l e x i c o n,\u00a0their spooky first single since <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/cultureaddicts.com\/?p=30037\" title=\"F I N K E L releases spooky new single &#8216;l e x i c o n&#8217;\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":30038,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"_wpas_customize_per_network":false},"categories":[12,23,28],"tags":[7773,7772],"class_list":["post-30037","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-electro","category-indie","category-music","tag-f-i-n-k-e-l","tag-l-e-x-i-c-o-n"],"aioseo_notices":[],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/6d8ce9d3-a650-4a1e-b7b5-74cc57bd3984.jpg?fit=700%2C467&ssl=1","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p2B2TV-7Ot","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":692,"url":"https:\/\/cultureaddicts.com\/?p=692","url_meta":{"origin":30037,"position":0},"title":"AllyFly\u2019s ABCs of Berlin","author":"cultureaddicts","date":"August 28, 2011","format":false,"excerpt":"Below are my ABCs of Berlin --- the things that most stood out for me during a recent trip.
