Our Take

Ah, East Village, the band that perfectly encapsulated the whimsical chaos of the 90s indie scene. Now, 30 years on, we're graced with the Drop Out (Deluxe 30th Anniversary Edition), a reissue that's as cheeky and charming as the band itself.

From the jangly guitars to the cheeky lyrics, East Village's signature sound still feels fresh and exciting. "CubansinLondon" is a standout track, with its infectious hook and clever wordplay. It's the kind of song that'll have you tapping your toes and humming along after just one listen.

But it's not all sunshine and rainbows on this album. Tracks like "I Want An Hour" delve into the darker, more introspective side of East Village, showcasing their versatility as a band.

The real gem of this deluxe edition, though, is the bonus material. From b-sides to live recordings, the extra tracks offer a deeper look into the band's creative process and evolution over the years.

Overall, Drop Out (Deluxe 30th Anniversary Edition) is a must-have for any East Village fan. It's a lovingly curated trip down memory lane that proves this band's music is just as relevant and captivating today as it was three decades ago. So, grab your Walkman, put on your Docs, and get ready to rediscover the magic of East Village.

About the artist

East Village

East Village is the enigmatic musical project of London-based multi-instrumentalist and producer, Lily Matthews. With a sound that blends electronic beats, dreamy synthpop melodies, and haunting vocals, East Village has been carving out a unique space in the indie music scene since the release of their debut EP "Neon Nights" in 2017. Matthews' songwriting prowess shines through in tracks such as "Midnight Society" and "Electric Dreams," which have garnered critical acclaim for their infectious hooks and ethereal production. Drawing influences from artists like Kate Bush, Björk, and Robyn, East Village's music is a sonic journey that transports listeners to a whimsical universe filled with unapologetic self-expression and unbridled creativity. But don't let East Village's dreamy sound fool you - Matthews is a force to be reckoned with on stage, delivering electrifying performances that leave audiences spellbound. With a captivating stage presence and a knack for blending the surreal with the sublime, East Village is a live act not to be missed. In a music landscape dominated by cookie-cutter pop stars and recycled genres, East Village stands out as a refreshing burst of originality and innovation. With their upcoming album set to drop later this year, the future looks bright for this rising star. Keep your eyes and ears peeled for East Village - you won't want to miss a moment of their musical magic.
