If It's Too Loud...

Istanbul born and France based artist Lal Tuna is back with a new single. "Afternoon Tram" feels like a dream. The song is wonderfully fuzzy, and has a dream pop/shoegaze meets doo wop sound. Lal Tuna croons over a fairly stripped back, jangly guitar to start the song off, and when the drums come in the entire song takes a step up. It seems a lot of the songs we've been covering lately has been finding beauty in dissonance, and "Afternoon Tram" continues that trend. If the song had kept being a slower, fuzzy track, it would have been a delight and one of our favorite of the year. But then it explodes into a cacophonous burst of noise while keeping the same vibe going. Lal Tuna has quickly become a favorite here at If It's Too Loud..., and "Afternoon Tram" only makes us adore her more. You can watch the video for "Afternoon Tram" below. Don't Forget Me is due out June 5 on Modulor Music and Nothing Is Mine. For more on Lal Tuna, check ...

Lal Tuna is a France via Istanbul musician that we've become enamored with over the past year or so. Her latest single, "Don't Forget Me," is more of what we've come to love about her music while not sounding fully like her previous singles. The new song takes her unique singer-songwriter sound and adds in some vintage doo wop. This isn't pure classic doo wop, though. "Don't Forget Me" takes the decades old sound and updates it to a more modern, indie rock based sound. It's like hearing it through a bizarro filter, with plenty of noise and fuzz from early indie rock washing over everything. Lal Tuna took two classic, retro sounds and made something completely modern with them. You can watch the video for "Don't Forget Me" below. The single is out now on Modular Music.
