Feature: Rain Dogs - Under The Influence
Showcasing their distinct spectrum of sound,Rain Dogs latest release Under The Influence captures a strong sense of DIY production that sits in a landscape of its own.
The EP is a project entirely self-produced and self-mixed, electronically boosted by warbling synths and low baritone vocals.
Since the release of their 2021 self-titled debut EP, they’ve been building momentum and dialling into their sound, balancing influences from post-punk, synth and electronica to steadily introduce their next creative instalment.
Throughout the five tracks, ‘Nights Are Lonely’, ‘More Than Desire’, ‘High Speed’, ‘Disintegrate’ and ‘Neon Dreams’, Under The Influence carves out a space that is immersive as it is atmospheric, balancing the band’s instinct with their diverse sonic influences.
Speaking to the EP, Rain Dogs share, “We worked on this EP in London, Melbourne and China. It’s darker than the first EP, with more stripped back instrumentation, following a theme of nightlife and hedonism.”
Under The Influence the latest release from Rain Dogs is available to stream now via Jpeg Artefacts.
