The music project known as Sublet has released a new single for Q1 2015, “Time Is a Razor Blade.” The track has been proudly published on the Boomnote Music independent record label. A ghostly, groovy track which blends acoustic instrumentation and impeccable female vocals with minimalist synth tones and futuristic style, Sublet's “Time Is a Razor Blade” is a track any true music fan will appreciate.
Sublet cites as main artistic influences a variety of music legends ranging from Freddy Mercury, the Smiths and Hank Williams, to Beck, J-Dilla and Sly and the Family Stone. Still, others of Sublet's musical inspirations seem to have left their mark on “Time Is a Razor Blade” somewhat more heavily. Nina Simone, Billie Holiday, Thom Yorke, and the Pixies all share sonic elements with the chill and shadowy track, with smatterings of Miles Davis and John Coltrane peeking out of the undertones for
good measure.
Asked to reveal the message of “Time Is a Razor Blade,” Sublet writes that the new single was written to emphasize “the importance of each moment.”
Dark and foreboding, yet full of satiny sensuousness like a Latin jazz club, “Time Is a Razor Blade” strikes a balance between seduction and gravity that hasn't been seen since the years of the original electronica movement which brought groups like Garbage, Portishead, and the Sneaker Pimps to global view. Fans of these bands, as well as those of modern digital music and listeners of contemporary indie tunes in general are certain to be enthusiastic about this latest addition to the Boomnote Music catalog from Sublet.
Over the course of 2013 and '14, Boomnote Music continued to gather plenty of attention from audiophiles for publishing popular and lasting releases from acclaimed artists including Eighty, Substratum, Beat Ventriloquists, Julie Walehwa, Mount Cyanide, and Josh One, in addition to a great many featured artists such as Lili De La Mora, LLgL TNdR, Rosey, and Buff1.
“Time Is a Razor Blade” by Sublet is available online worldwide.
