about

For all its gut-punch aesthetics, the debut album by Melbourne duo Vacuum is alive with refreshing wit. Its elliptical industrial songs apply a piquant buzz to contemporary experimental electronic music. Comprised of stalwart musicians Andrea Blake and Jenny Branagan, you can feel Vaccum's distinct sense for physicality throughout Vacuum. Sub-bass shudders through its veins; remixes by Lakker and Sow Discord add high-frequency electricity. Sleekly built but coarse in texture, Vacuum makes hard graft feel like a walk in the park.

*please note tracks 9 & 10 are only available on the digital album.

Life of the Inhabitant
by time for dreams

supported by 7 fans who also own “VACUUM”

One of my favourite Melbourne groups has returned! This record is tight as f*ck but stays humble. Ambient and able to sit in the background but also kaleidoscopic and full of complexity when you give it full attention. Something that stood out to me was how good this album sounds, super ultra hi fi. Like driving into utopia with all your broken dreams. DEΔN
