one of the less publicized auxiliary members of the pc music gang felicita, aka dominik dvorak, whose polyrhythmic, abstract, deconstructionist take on the trademark sound helped carve him out a niche within an already niche-centric subgenre, just unleashed the frenemies ep, his official debut under the brand-spankin'-new label gum artefacts. frenemies is such an apt title, as felicita's subject matter explores the uncanny vapidness of valley-girl culture, and harshly contrasts it against his broken, half-finished instrumentals. the effect is disorienting to put it lightly, but intoxicating nonetheless. it's no wonder "wannabe" is often rumoured to be by an alter-ego of felicita's, as they both share the same brand of snarky commentary paired up with scattered, jagged production. frenemies is available on itunes (and other sites), and i would strongly recommend a purchase to support these wonderful people.
