Denver-based psychedelic pop/indie electronic musician Devin James Fry showcases a bitches brew of edgy sounds on his pair of new singles entitled "Purple Glue" and "No Hope", the latter being a collaborative hip hop track featuring Otem Rellik and Nat Tate. "Purple Glue" is the first single to be released from upcoming album RETRELLION.
"Purple Glue is about WTF holds a divided personality together. I imagine a disgusting purple ooze. Magnetic.
I built an analog horror SFX generator for this project. I call it the Jitter Getter because it adds all these unsettling atmospherics, slasher movie style. It's essentially a two string diddly bow with gothy bells and whistles. I put the first few sound tests on TikTok and people were saying it sounded like a terrifying angel, which is fun. It's an infernal machine, lots of fun to experiment with.
In Purple Glue I used a taisho koto where there would normally be a guitar solo, because I don't want a guitar onstage right now.
Grant Eppley is brilliant. He rescued snatches of my vocal warm-ups from a bunch of unused takes and stitched them together into this gauzy auto-tuned intro for Purple Glue. It was a total surprise when he played it back for me. Drew me in right away. What a weird, perfect idea. Grant has great instincts and I love working with him." - Devin James Fry
