Bay Area artist Salami Rose Joe Louis (the project of Lindsay Olsen) will be releasing her new album Akousmatikous on May 19 via Brainfeeder. She shared newest single “Dimcola Reprise” last week - a snazzy track that spans just under 3 minutes long. It’s hard to assign just one genre to it as it’s more like a meld of various genres - from the soft electronic textures to the soulful vocals. “Dimcola Reprise” has a gentleness to it that feels like a coaxing, going hand in hand with Olsen’s message. There’s a hypnotizing calm to the song that puts listeners into a deep trance but with the lyrics, it’s really society (and capitalism) casting a spell on us to minimize our emotions and thoughts - to keep on chugging along and become little worker bees.

On the track, Olsen shares: “In the game of capitalism, the ability to ‘roll with the punches,’ be resilient, suppress emotions, and bounce back quickly are championed. I was reflecting on the sort of internal monologue we give ourselves to get through tricky moments and work through feelings. On the dystopian planet of this story, I imagined this internal motivator voice, was some kind of pre-programmed pep talk robot voice that was activated every time an earthling was having a negative emotion. This robot voice was manipulated by Zeeanori [the album’s protagonist] on his mission to keep the earthlings locked in a complacent state.”
