Feelings

Feelings EP, Ulysses's second release on The Bunker New York, is confident, coherent, and carefully arranged. "I've found that I only make good music if I'm experimenting," says Ulysses, explaining his compositional process. "How Does It Feel To Feel?" features low-slung basslines and synthesizer blasts that sound like jets flying overhead. "Object of Interest" runs at a similarly slow pace but feels slightly less demented, intensifying the atmosphere and priming it for peak-time. "The Mascara Snake" is the quintessential B-side sleeper: a moody, melodic synth-pop slow-jam that sounds like Duran Duran on some very high quality psychedelics.
