- Clamorous but sensual experimentation from the Pittsburgh duo.
- On "DEEPEND," the Pennsylvania-based duo ALONA stimulate all sorts of senses with their unique approach to noisy yet ambient sounds. Their latest single has a looser structure compared to their previous releases—it's a far cry from the spectral R&B of last year's R.E.D., starting with harsh and scattered percussion, then simmering down into a slow, leaden stomp. The sharp slashes and growls in "DEEPEND," juxtaposed with the slow tempo, tease the listener's expectations, taking ALONA's journey down a whole new path through experimental electronic music.
