Prefix Mag Premiere — Gangi: “Railways Nos. 1-27″ (Video)

Originally posted at Prefixmag.com on Oct 2, 2012:

band photo jpeg 630x727 q85 Prefix Mag Premiere Gangi: Railways Nos. 1 27 (Video)

Matt Gangi is prolific. After self-releasing his first album, A, in a toxic, rent stabilized bedroom in Brooklyn under his own label, Office of Analogue and Digital (OOAAD), the DIY musician packed up his bags and set up shop across the country in Glendale, California.

After relocating, he began touring and recording hundreds of songs with old friend, drummer and multi-instrumentalist Eric Chramosta. Together, they are Gangi, and today we are happy to premiere the music video for their first single, “Railways Nos. 1-27,” off their sophomore album, Gesture Is, which drops today on OOAAD (buy it here!).

Directed by Joel Levin, the clip is pretty straight forward, documenting the seemingly mundane journey of a train ride. But like the track itself, the visual accompaniment is made beautiful with layers and textures, creating a romanticized perception of riding the railways.

Intrigued with building and modding analogue equipment, Gangi’s tracks revolve around an atmospheric, transfixing electronic component with psych-pop melodies and shoegaze-influenced instrumentation stemming from this core. The result is remarkably lush soundscapes that transcend any one genre.

Watch the music video for “Railways Nos. 1-27,” below and if you live in the Los Angeles area, check out Gangi’s record release show tonight (October 2) at The Satellite. More tour dates can be found here.

FILTER Magazine — GANGI Releases Shining New Single, “Gold”

Gangi Press 150 200x200 FILTER Magazine GANGI Releases Shining New Single, “Gold”

Los Angeles’ GANGI, are no strangers to touring the United States. And through this experience of traveling from city to city, the band is surely bound to be influenced by the various stops on the road.

And they’ve now released the perfect road-trip song, “Gold,” and we have it here as a FILTER Premiere.

“Gold” is the type of song that begs you to sing along to its gospel-like chorus. And it leaves you feeling as though you could take on just about anything. What more could you ask for in a song, really?

Make sure you listen to the FILTER Premiere of “Gold,” off their forthcoming LP, gesture is, out October 2, below.

SPIN — GANGI to release new record on October 2nd, 2012

‘gesture is’ is due out on October 2 via Office of Analogue and Digital

Matt Gangi’s electro-psych evolution has been years in the making. In 2008, when SPIN saw the now L.A.-based artist at CMJ, expectations of strummy freak-folk gave way to dance beats and confident stagecraft, sparking comparisons to artists as disparate as Brian Jonestown Massacre and the Books. Now a duo with drummer and multi-instrumentalist Eric Chramosta, Gangi is set to release his second album as GANGI, gesture is, on October 2 via his own Office of Analogue and Digital label. Following a spooky black-and-white video for multi-layered advance track “Outside Ones,” the second preview of the new album comes in the form of “Railways no. 1-27.” With crunching guitar, looping vocals, live drums, found-sound samples, and even a smattering of honking saxophone, it’s an intricate, everything-and-the-kitchen-sink bit of atmospheric pop that amply displays the pair’s addiction to tweaking old analogue gear. “You’ve got to pay attention,” Gangi sings, and that’s always good advice.
