Holly Herndon has become a leading light in contemporary alternative and electronic music by fearlessly experimenting within the outer reaches of dance music and pop song writing structures. A galvanizing statement, 'Platform' cements Herndon's reputation as a unique musician with a singular voice.
Among the collaborators on 'Platform' are composer and drag performer Colin Self (vocals on "Unequal"), contemporary artist Spencer Longo (co-writer on "Locker Leak"), rogue production outfit Amnesia Scanner (co-producers of "An Exit"), Ensemble Dal Niente's soprano voice Amanda DeBoer Bartlett (vocals on "DAO"), and Berlin Community Radio's ASMR ambassador Claire Tolan (voice on "Lonely At The Top").
Herndon's debut album 'Movement,' released in 2012, showcased her fascination with trance and the disjunctive sampling techniques pioneered by avant-garde composition. Subsequent singles "Chorus" and "Home" – rolled out in advance of 'Platform' – humanised the laptop by celebrating its capacity for memory storage and lamenting its vulnerability in light of revelations of mass surveillance.
Offering what Herndon describes as "a rupture, a paradisic gesture," 'Platform' is an optimistic breakthrough for Herndon, an appeal for progress – a step towards new ways to love.
