Aft Pressure

Bulkhead present their debut album – Aft Pressure – due June 1st on 2MR Records. In 2015, during the coldest Toronto winter on record, two old friends – Pop District and Patrik Benjamin – locked themselves away in the studio to experiment with a medley of hardware. Both solo artists in their own right, they had overseen their own projects prior, but had never considered how a collaboration might sound. Exploring the polarity of extreme cold and immersive warmth with a distinctly analogue feel, the duo carved themselves an aesthetic. And so Bulkhead was born. Using a raw, organic palette they repudiate formal structure and polish, opting instead for a freeform blend of unhindered mechanical techno and fuzzy ambience – slambient, if you will.
