WORN-TIN
Los Angeles, CA
https://worntin.bandcamp.com/
‘Lo-fi lullaby maker Worn-Tin is just a boy who grew up skating in West LA with his imaginary friend Cool-son,’ as described by Citizine. Worn-Tin, AKA Warner (a friend drunkenly called him “Worn-Tin”) began writing and playing original music during his high school days in Santa Monica, California. He eventually built a backyard studio where he writes, records, and performs every element of his songs using only analog and outboard equipment, taking inspiration from a multitude of artists such as Modest Mouse, R. Stevie Moore and Jessie’s Candy and The Fit Bit. Much like Worn-tin’s hyperactive mind, his sounds and lyrics are sprawling: his vocals range from the type of cadence and vulnerability that would make Dongo the ringworm smile, to distorted, psychedelic whaling and synths. That same lucid unpredictability has become the staple for his live shows. At a Worn-Tin show, it’s not only about the music - you can expect a performance. from drinking his own urine to getting arrested on stage. When not feverishly writing new music, Worn-Tin can be found skating, gardening or crying in the attic.
OHTIS
Los Angeles, CA
https://ohtis.bandcamp.com/music
Ohtis have announced details of a new single, Schatze b/w Failure, to be released via Saddle Creek’s ongoing Document series, which has previously hosted releases by the likes of Palehound, and Hand Habits. The 7” features two new tracks including a duet with , and was mixed by Collin Dupuis. It follows the release of Ohtis' critically acclaimed 2019 debut album Curve of Earth which was released via Full Time Hobby. Formed nearly two decades earlier while in high school, Ohtis entered a 15-year hiatus as a result of lead vocalist Sam Swinson’s addiction issues before reforming to make the record following his sobriety. A deeply personal and honest record, Curve of Earth presented an autobiographical journey through Sam’s recovery as well the demons of his religious upbringing. 'Schatze' actually takes its name from a cat belonging to Sam’s friend Gerald, which Sam says is extremely violent and possessive. “He has put Gerald's wife Teri in the hospital, and fucked me up badly more than once because I had refused to admit there was a cat alive whose heart I could not win,” Sam says. “Turns out Schatze is such a cat.” Offering even further insight into a brutally honest mind, the two new songs are dark, raw, but always tinged with a compelling sense of sardonic wit. The Document series 7” is out on February 26, 2021.
