The grey-purple rain of City Road is behind us. The "bruise in the air" has been crossed. The Hollow Circuit has officially jumped the timeline, and things are getting... geometric.

[EPISODE FOUR: THE FIRST EDITION]

Now streaming exclusively on our Tumblr.

  • The Sound: Keep your ears open for the bassline. A glitched, punk revelation of Guantanamera is bleeding through the frequencies.

📡 HOW TO FOLLOW THE GLITCH

"If I come out the other side as something other than myself, I'm going to be really pissed off." — Rhiannon
