Brothertiger, and Hotel Pools

What happens when two artists defined by independence decide to share the reins? Particularly in the realm of electronic music, so often crafted in the privacy of a bedroom or a solitary studio, collaboration can feel like an exercise in ceding control. For Brothertiger and Hotel Pools, this exercise proved surprisingly easy. Months of swapping ideas from opposite coasts gradually yielded Paradigms, a joint album that finds the two veteran artists melding their signature sounds into a dreamy electronica confection. Over seven hypnotic songs, Brothertigers entrancing vocals float in a rich mist of layered synths, creating an ethereal sonic atmosphere that feels simultaneously calm and climactic. At its face, this sound may not be unfamiliar to fans of either artist. Hotel Pools, the moniker of Portland-based artist and producer Ben Braun, has been a stalwart presence in the vaporwave scene since 2018, and Brothertigers John Jagos has amassed a cult following for his masterful electronic production. Their affinity for synths isnt the only thing they have in common after demoralizing experiences with traditional record labels, both artists opted to go fully independent and release music directly to their fans. Just start experimenting, says Ben. Thats whats fun, and thats whats going to make good music.Cafe Du Nords Preferred Viewing Available, General Admission Not IncludedFor any event that is listed as 18 or 21 and over, ANY ticket holder unable to present valid identification indicating that they are of age will not be admitted to this event, and will not be eligible for a refund.
