Eyedress: Hearing Colors
“Eyedress sounds like nobody but himself. Keep your eye on what he does next” – NME
“Set to do to Manila, what Arcade Fire did to Montreal and Pulp did to Sheffield” – Dazed
“Spacey songs by young Filipinos about nearly killing your girlfriend while hiking aren’t nearly common enough these days” – The Guardian
Based in Quezon City, Manila, Eyedress is 23 year old Filipino producer, Idris Vicuña. This album was recorded using Fruity Loops in Eyedress’ bedroom on a PC laptop handed down to him by his father. Since his emergence he has supported the likes of Jungle, Grimes and Mac DeMarco and earned plaudits from the likes of I-D, The Observer and Dazed & Confused. Those who caught his debut UK live shows last month were captivated – with NME describing one as “far from the cliché of a bedroom producer as it’s possible to imagine – it’s punk as fuck, weird and utterly compelling”.
