CREATURES is a 2-member dark pop band based in Berlin. GER and consists of Luke Troynar &Jonny Zoum. As the last guests of the party depart, leaving sodden confetti and the smell of cigarettes lingering behind, you might just begin to notice a little light creeping behind the rootftops of Berlin. This is the hour where CREATURES resides...[the debut EP] is stunning… tender, tart and completely captivating. The music is woven with delicate guitars, synths and sparse drums. It shimmers and yields, and you wont be able to look away. ― Kat Frankie. Esteemed artist Kat Frankie is just one of a growing clique of the musically inclined currently having their ears pricked and their emotions stirred by CREATURES, and her eloquent preamble to the debut EP is an apt description of the duo’s work. Following a solo layering of assorted instruments and multiple strands of silky-soft vocals―all dipped delicately in lush reverb to comprise the New Campaigns EP―singer-songwriter, Luke Troynar, has since teamed up with producer/multi-instrumentalist, Jonny Zoum, positioning CREATURES en route to increasingly promising horizons. Together, the two Melbournian-cum-Berliners have built a dynamic live act and begun to hone the brooding, cinematic quality layered within the gentle and restrained, yet powerful, songs that make up the unique CREATURES aesthetic. The result is a provocative and darkly melodic resonance ― an atmospheric sound that climbs patiently to its climaxes, revealing glimmers of experimental genres together with all the sweet sensibilities and dramatic grandeur of carefully crafted pop music, all the while never overriding the strong lyrical focus at the core of each song. As Kevin Junk from Wolf Auf Tausend Peataus neatly sums up: “[CREATURES create] an enchanting paradox where nothing is as sweet as it sounds… one of Berlin’s most interesting emerging voices”.
