GILLIGAN MOSS RELEASES ‘ULTRAPARADISO’ ON FOREIGN FAMILY COLLECTIVE – [LISTEN]
Out now rightfully on Odesza’s Foreign Family Collective label is a fresh new single “Ultraparadíso” by Gilligan Moss. The track captures a carefree, summer vibe that without a doubt matches its title.
Mellow guitar strumming and careful percussion create a warm and inviting soundscape. In an unexpected yet pleasant fashion, the song flowers into a hypnotic myriad of melodies. “Ultraparadíso” is an ode to sensory harmony and worldly bliss on every level.
Gilligan Moss comments on the track, “We wrote this song as a postcard from a daydream. It is a song in transition caught between club-land & psychedelia, dreamspace and being awake. Our favorite music is transportive, and we just wanted to bring people from quarantine to not only a paradise, but an ultraparadise.”
Brooklyn-dwelling Gilligan Moss are no strangers to transportive music. They have released official remixes for Glass Animals and Sebastian Tellier, in addition to touring with Glass Animals, Toro y Moi, and Tourist. They have also made performances at major festivals such as Coachella, Pitchfork Paris, and Electric Forest.
The two actually met at age three in a Chicago preschool. After attending summer camp together and fostering an undeniable friendship, they began to make music as a pair in 2015. They’ve release two EPs, Ceremonial (2015) and What Happened (2018) while continuing to release music in quarantine.
