The term refers to a genre which enmeshes the raucous energy of rock with pulsating, atmospheric electronic productions, inspired by the underground nightlife of Paris and London. This tension between analogue and synthetic transpires throughout their music, their texts or their visuals. Inkwells is the Paris-based creation of childhood friends Marcus Woodcock (vocals, bass), Nathan Darrow (electric guitar) and Ludwig Krainik-Saul (synths & beats). Its ethos is embodied in 536°F, their first mixtape, a raw and deliberate experimentation of noise rock, breakbeat and techno. Out 13 December 2024.
