Tanukichan, the musical project of Oakland, CAs Hannah van Loon, has been a prominent figure in modern shoegaze music since 2016, when she first collaborated with Chaz Bear of Toro y Moi. Together, they released an EP and two full-length albums under Bears Company Records, culminating in 2023s GIZMO. With her new EP Circles, out September 20th, 2024, via Carpark Records, van Loon ventures into new territory by teaming up with a new producer for the first time Franco Reid.The genesis of their partnership dates back to the GIZMO campaign, when Reid noticed van Loon wearing an Incubus shirt in a press photo on Instagram. Intrigued by whether or not van Loon was a genuine fan, he sent her a DM. Their shared musical interest sparked a dialogue that eventually led to the creation of the single NPC in 2023. Lead single City Bus, offers a reflection on van Loons childhood bus rides in San Francisco, evoking the stop-and-go rhythm of commuter life through hard-hitting drums and heavy guitar feedback phasing in and out of the mix. Themes of self-reflection and societal belonging permeate the track, echoing van Loons ongoing personal journey.While much of Circles delves into internal struggles, It Gets Easier takes on a more celebratory tone as van Loon realizes shes developed a heightened sense of maturity when dealing with hardship. Introduced by Reid, nu-gaze sensation Wisp, contributes a verse in her similarly ethereal vocal style.Sale Dates and Times:
