After releasing Frenemies, one of TMT’s favorite releases of 2014, Felicita returns with a squishy little track called “Tails.” It’s a harmonically bizarre yet formally genius number, with Felicita skewing the pop formula to produce something that approximates the repetitive, glitchy incoherence of modern-day living. LOL “modern-day living.” OK, maybe not, but the track is perpetually unstable, continuously threatening to unify into something palatable but never does because it’s comprised of, like, rainbow synths, scribbled rhythms, and a jello.gif.
Meanwhile, check out Felicita with the PC Music crew at their SXSW showcase.
