Secret Colours
Oblivion
Chicago's Secret Colours mix a mind-melting dose of psychedelia and American rock 'n' roll with the trippiest sounds
emanating from Britain in the '90s to create an immersive experience all their own. Incorporating ample amounts of fuzz
and delay, the resulting aural offerings conjure up an impression of The Stone Roses and The Brian Jonestown Massacre
joining forces as a supergroup circa 1975.
Tracked to half-inch, 8-track tape using vintage recording equipment and analogue techniques, Secret Colours crafted
both "Oblivion" and "I Feel Love" exclusively for their Hypnotic Bridge single. Recorded live in the studio to capture
the energy and spontaneity of four musicians interacting, the band then added extra layers of fuzz, Mellotron, string
synths, reverse guitar, and a plethora of tape delays to create a swirling, psychedelic haze that propels the music into
new realms.
"Oblivion" embraces a lysergic country rock tone in the vein of The Byrds and Relatively Clean Rivers while reflecting
on the current state of affairs. The instrumental cover of what has long been considered the most psychedelic of disco
songs, "I Feel Love," has been a strong staple of the band's live set, a trippy tribute to Donna Summer's classic
groover.
