    Haunting, layered and acoustically stunning, Dexter Tortoriello of Houses fame crushes it with an EP that has been underappreciated to date. Invest and enjoy.

    A stunningly haunting and emotional debut for Dexter Tortoriello using the "Dawn Golden" moniker. A perfect post breakup record to listen to at night or on rainy days, Particularly gut wrenching but beautiful are the tracks "Discoloration", "All I Want", "I Won't Bend", "Last Train" and "Brief Encounter."

    You don't get the sense of elation one might receive for being paid to pose for an art class because to listen to Dawn Golden's debut of course, you pay them for the privilege.

    Dawn Golden merges crushing emotional currents with innovative production for a debut that's bold and crisp, if somewhat harrowing in its darkest moments.

    It’s a glorious anthology of affective, brutally precise top notch electronic pop.
