As soon as I saw the name I Talk Too Much When I'm Drunk - Front Door, I knew there would be something trippy and exciting in the music lurking behind that play button. Today's spotlight, their debut single "Front Door", serves as an intro gateway towards a captivating new chapter in Indonesia's indie-electronic scene. I Talk Too Much When I'm Drunk is a Jakarta-based downtempo collective, fronted by highly acclaimed singer/songwriter Danilla.
The 5-piece dives deep into the subtle, often unspoken moments of modern attraction. With shimmering textures and restrained emotion, the track evokes the quiet intensity of eye contact that says more than conversation ever could. They sound like a way, way happier version of HVOB mixed with the energy of bands like Little Dragon and Snakadaktal (if you guys remember them).
"Front Door" offers more than just a compelling name. It’s a strong reason to start paying attention, and an enticing glimpse of their debut album set to drop this August of this year. A song made for those special golden-hour moments spent with friends diving into the depths of life's most complicated matters.
