Carol Ryu sent this over a week or so ago, I somehow let it slip through the cracks. Straight up, this is one of the best music videos I have seen in a long time. It's funny because the visuals are not at all what you would expect from what seems like such a pleasant, pretty-sounding artist such as White Blush . Grab her EP for free and stay tuned, she's on the team, I promise you'll be hearing more from her soon.
Tweet There are five new entries this week and a new number one. Brooklyn's independent R&B resident Autre Ne Veut (Arthur Ashin) is the standout debuting at 7 with the excellent first single 'Play By Play' off his new album Anxiety. Ashin is joined by Keep Shelly In Athens, 'Madmen Love' (18), Blue Hawaii, 'Try To Be '(19), White Blush, 'Jolene' (24) and Decades, 'Tonight Again' (30). Kurt Vile soars into the Top 10 at 5 with [...]
Monday Music’s the one post where Some Of It Was True! drops its London-only rule. Wildlife Control – Ages Places I desperately want to see this song performed live, to go bonkers to it. Because, oh god: the way the heavy guitars and thick, heady beats build and speed up... The way the giddy, ecstatic crescendo leaves me feeling absolutely elated, punching the air, beaming, buzzing, desperate to ill-advisedly phone the new girl and tell her how fucking wonderful she might [...]
Tweet White Blush, the project belonging to the exceedingly humble and talented Los Angeles based artist Carol Rhyu released her new video last week 'The Juice Of My Heart'. It's the closing track to her debut EP she released late last year, unfortunately too late for us to plug back then. Every track on the six song self titled EP has its own story to tell and speaks to meticulous arrangements that range from the dark electro of 'Tru Luv', the motorik pulse [...]
El pasado mes de Enero, White Blush se encargó de armar un excelente mixtape para este espacio, con el cual aproveche para platicarles un poco más a detalle sobre los planes futuros que tiene este proyecto para este año, entre los que principalmente se encontraba el lanzamiento del vídeo para el primer sencillo que se desprende de su debut homónimo, "Juice Of My Heart". Ese vídeo por fin ha salido a la luz, mismo que además estuvo bajo la dirección de la misma Carol Rhyu, la mente detrás de toda esta bella odisea de synths bautizada [...]
Here’s LA ElectroPop experimentalist White Blush new video for her tracks Juice Of My Heart . Carol Rhyu herself directs the clip, which is pretty brutal, but I won;t spoil it for you, just watch. White Blush’s self-titled début EP is out now. Buy White Blush’s music from: Follow @electronicrumor
White Blush , aka Los Angeles-based dream pop artist Carol Rhyu , is originally from Chicago and was in film school when she began playing in synth bands around Los Angeles. In February, she began recording under White Blush drawing from old J-horror, anime, and Julee Cruise. Her favorite artists also include Grimes, Cocteau Twins, Mazzy Star, and The Soft Moon. In her old tiny apartment, she remembers anxiously recording in different rooms without doors and the paranoia of being heard between the walls or small cracks in the floor, “It always felt like someone was coming, [...]

More beautiful synthpop from London's New Arcades . "Remember The Nights" is a free download via this ep on Soundcloud . I am still really into this one from Strangeheart . I'll have another track to post as soon as the band finish one up! I thought I'd share this from LA's White Blush . They find the right balance of electronics with that dreamy female vocal sound. Reminds me of Halou or SPC ECO. [...]
White Blush - Juice Of My Heart When Los Angeleina Carol Rhyu sent me this video last week, she summarized the plot as “a waitress gets revenge.” I’d say. And then some! She’s taking some cues in color from Wong Kar-wai while tapping into the kitch of spraying copious amounts of blood of Kill Bill Part 1 , then turning into a sort of sick musical song n’ dance. Weird and wild, to be sure. Don’t miss her excellent debut eponymous EP available [...]
You know those tunes you hear and stop you dead in your tracks? Yeah? Well, 'Mirror' by White Blush, aka LA artist Carol Rhyu, is one of those. From the get go the pulsating rhythm and drifting minimalism of 'Mirror' draws you in, with barely audible lyrics delivered like a dreamy distant cooing sealing the deal. A beautiful, dreamy [...]
Explore the otherworldly, synth-pop sounds of White Blush with the eponymous EP.
Carol dropped this off a couple days back, v pleasant new jam from White Blush. Starting off very clean then bringing in some big synths. It might even fit the drag genre. Sounds a little like something oOoOO could be behind. I like this direction for White Blush. She's definitely got some things going on since the release of her free ep just last month. Oh yeah, she mentioned that it reminds her of kindergarten...
White Blush es Carol LA Rhyu, una artista de Chicago que posteriormente se mudó a Los Ángeles, lugar donde comenzó a estudiar cine y se inició en la música tocando en bandas de su escuela. De mi parte, es curioso ver que sin saber lo que había estudiado, al escucharla muchos de sus tracks, me pareció material de soundtrack de algo. Su EP homónimo se compone de 6 tracks, unos bien sexy dreamy y otros ya tocando la línea de lo darks (en el buen sentido). Me fijé que cuando entras a su bandcamp no abres el [...]
This is entirely new to me, and I have to confess that on the first listen the borderline disco beat had me twitching a little in whatever one of my internal musical organs it is which seems to hate fun. I find synth-pop to be a slightly tricky area, in the sense that I can be incredibly finicky about what I like, but some of it I think is absolutely brilliant. Quite what shunts something from one camp to the other I don't know, but it didn't take long for me to realise that this is really rather [...]
White Blush es un proyecto que llego a mi de la nada, y es uno que desde el primer track con el que arranca su EP homónimo me dejo mas que encantado, ya que no sólo me recordó a actos como Tape3000 y Labyrinth Ear , sino que además la chica detrás de esta aventura porta con un delicado falceto que le brinda un estilo mucho más especial y de ensueño a las melodías que poco a poco van proyectando un oasis a base de synths que seguramente ustedes estarán disfrutando a la perfección. Su nombre [...]
I’ve tended to throw the term “Dream Pop” around relatively loosely in recent months. It’s a genre that you can’t really pinpoint with one sound. But if I had to pick one artist that best exemplified the Dream Pop genre in my mind, I’d go with White Blush. White Blush is Carol Rhyu out of Los Angeles. “Jolene” is a track off her debut self titled EP released last week. Warm synths combine with Rhyu’s lovely voice to create a intensely soothing and mellow atmosphere. “Jolene” is one of the first great tracks of 2013 and gets this new year [...]
White Blush - Jolene We don't need drums. We don't need guitars, or even bass. We don't even need to hear the faintest words. We crave atmosphere. However that atmosphere comes around, be it calloused fingers plucking strings or measured, timed punches to a mechanism, we'll welcome it. We'll welcome the soundtracks to our finite, untallied days. We'll welcome the vibrating hallway echoes in our ear canals. The background noise will wash away. No engines, gears or rattling exhaust pipes backfiring. No screaming from under the rip tides. We'll perch on the mountainsides of our lower-level [...]
