Barrie, Dom, Noah, Sabine, and Spurge - collectively
known as Barrie - began releasing music together in the
early months of 2018. Their first single, "Canyons," arrived
in February, quickly resonating with fans of ambient,
dreamy pop. It wasn't until June that the group shared their
second single "Tal Uno," a shimmering tune that recalls
80s synth tones and haunting vocal melodies. The third and
final single in the series, "Michigan," also features a shift in
production style, this time opting for the more traditional
rock-band instrumentation of drums and guitar.
Collected together for a 12" release with Winspear, the 3
singles make up side A. For the B-Side of the record, the
group wanted to involve the work of some friends from the
Brooklyn house and techno community. FaltyDL & Shura,
who Barrie met through The Lot Radio, handled a downtempo
remix of "Canyons," while Brother Michael, a
long-time friend and engineer, remixed "Michigan."
