No matter where you are, whatever the weather, this little ditty is sure to cheer you up! If you’d have told me that Frankie’s former outfit was the beachy blues of Crushed Out, I might not have believed you. First, “Aperture Opening” shows no signs of guitar and has Frankie contributing all the instruments with Kimberly Haven dream accented backing vocals. Second, the song shows joyous with its’ kaleidoscopic brand of electro, synth-pop.
I won’t say that Frankie Sunswept swept hasn’t been busy. It’s only been a little over a year since the full length Turning. Since then we’ve heard 4 tracks : “Who Loves The Rain?” “Extinction Burst,” “Dog Days,” and the aforementioned “Aperture Opening.” It seems that Frankie Sunswept isn’t slowing down anytime soon, which might signal a new LP sooner rather than later.
From an early age I’ve been in love with music. Whether it was queuing up Sesame Street vinyl on my Fisher Price turntable. Using our family stereo stack to rock out to Billy Idol, R.E.M, Talking Head, Green Day, and John “Cougar” Mellencamp with my dad. Brought up on the classic rock radio station really helped lay the proper foundation for what music was and what it could be. While I do listen to the entire musical spectrum, my favorites are Metal, Soul, Jazz, Shoegaze, and Psychedelic anything. Basically an emphasis on anything rock, I never turn down a good riff.
