About The Record

Drip Audio and Maximum Music present the dual album by two pioneering musical projects, The Winks and Tights.

The Winks unfurl their butterfly wings on this, their second official release. The trio reveal new tricks wrapped in an historic carapace endowed with a refreshing dialect of pop language, vintage and unusual, like antique arms pointing to infinite roots in time and culture, places in history obscured by dust and cobwebs, finally rediscovered, polished, and prepared for the modern world.

Tights, persuading the theory to new levels, features the cello and mandolin of The Winks and adds the digital stylings of live laptop processing from renowned electronic artist Andy Dixon (aka: Secret Mommy). This electro-acoustic unit expands on The Winks theme of archetypal versus conventional art forms, but broadens it by exaggerating both the timelessness and ultra-modern qualities while introducing a playful sense of musical intuition.

Reviews
The Winks are breathy, spoken word Bach on a few hits of acid...You want to hear what the next song sounds like because you sometimes can’t believe you liked the last one so much." - Antoine Tedesco,SceneandHeard.ca
