Generationals - Reader As Detective

From their inception, Generationals have existed at the convergence of classic style and contemporary technique. Students of an analog school actualized in a digital medium, Grant Widmer and Ted Joyner have always felt most comfortable reveling in this juxtaposition. Grounded in a catalog of infectious pop hooks that feel both familiar and radically new all at once, Generationals mastered their distinct voice as a means to widen the path before them. Reader As Detective, their new full-length album, weds vintage pop canon and modern pop production in a way this duo has proven incomparably adept. From the cornerstone sample of "I Turned My Back on the Written Word," (a recontextualization of an unreleased b-side) to the playful synths and stuttered drums of "Dream Box," and jogging rhythms of "Breaking Your Silence," Generationals continue to push the envelope by playing by their own rules.
