Dead Soft • Goon • Mephalta • DJ Caterwaul • mutant sounds

After releases on Kingfisher Bluez and Infinity Cat, Dead Soft have now signed with Arts & Crafts. They'll kick off their relationship with the label by releasing a new EP called New Emotion.

If that sounds familiar, it's because they named it after "Here Comes the Rain Again" by the Eurythmics.

"We chose this as the name for the EP due to the mysterious duality of the meaning," frontman Nathaniel Epp said in a press release. "'New Emotion' in and of itself sounds bright and new, but the lyric it stems from -- Here comes the rain again / Falling on my head like a memory / Falling on my head like a new emotion -- evokes a sense of sadness and longing."
