Eat Your Own Ears Presents: Rainer + Maxixe – Thursday 23rd January
Posted January 21, 2014
Free Entry – Online RSVP SOLD OUT
We’re delighted to kick off our new year with Rainer at the Waiting Room.
“Sex can be scary and exhilarating and terribly not allowed all at the same time,” says Rebekah Raa. She should know – her new EP as one half of London avant pop duo Rainer braves the menagerie of emotions that come with bedroom trysts and a brand new relationship. Happiness. Melancholy. Neediness. Insanity. Tangling pop vocals with sleek cracked beats on a bed of cinematic synth swells, it’s a record with the burning night time feel of a Burial nocturne and seductive shimmer of a Chromatics slow dance but blockbuster hooks of a pop chart-topper: a love affair with your headphones waiting to happen.
