Love Austin Music: Urban Heat

Summary

Brace yourself for an enthusiastic onslaught of adjectives. Today’s Love Austin Music Month feature on the AMM brings you a lightning rod of dark electro/proto-punk/new wave/synth wave/part goth/part industrial sound that is all the things but…simultaneously transcending them into something fresher. It’s the portal that leads your ears to Urban Heat. Jonathan Horstmann, Kevin Naquin and Paxel Foley started releasing Urban Heat tracks in 2019. Mad love for these pulsating analog adventure times, and more are on the horizon.

Urban Heat is part of yet another fantastic line-up in a residency show starring electro-pop trio KVN tomorrow night, Thursday Jan. 27, at the Mohawk. They’re joined by Belgrade-born Austin-based pop artist Arya. Doors open at 7 p.m. And please remember to bring your mask.

Push Back

For your Austin Music Minute host, this one goes back to a band called Fresh Millions. Geoff Earle is no slouch. The multi-talented Austin musician would build entire worlds with jarring layers and explosions of electronic/rock/funk aural transmitters radiating from some rando central nervous system that wouldn’t quit. The earliest manifestation is on Fresh Millions’ […]

All Life’s Worth

There is no denying the emotional resonance of Sunny War‘s voice. That feeling is instant. But you’ll also discover that singular strength in the way she plays guitar. Deliberate. Intricate. A lingering depth. A musician’s musician in varying degrees. And an all-around badass. The Los Angeles-based artist has deep roots in the LA punk scene, […]
