CAICOS (FEAT. LOJII) – “SUBSEQUENT FOOTPRINT”
A SPILL EXCLUSIVE VIDEO PREMIERE
Today, New York-based indie-pop maestro Caicos (Alex Frenkel’s moniker for his solo project apart from the indie band Gospels) shares a new track entitled “Subsequent Footprint” (ft. lojii), the newest single off his forthcoming album Ascension Intention, out September 15 via #veryjazzed Records.
The new track — which Frenkel says “explores how learning things that you never knew about yourself can compel life-altering changes that might be hard to deal with initially but will ultimately leave you at more peace than you were before” — additionally comes alongside an accompanying music video, directed by Rozalina Burkova, an illustrator, visual artist and animator, whose work has been featured in The New York Times, Gucci, Human Rights Watch, Subpop Records, and Polyvinyl Records, among others.
Earlier this summer, Caicos shared the record’s first two cuts, both of which demonstrate the depths of their sonic and lyrical world: first, “A Spade A Spade” (with lyrics about finding tranquility in accepting today’s reality, even if it’s not what you expected) and later, “Bruise Or Blush” (inspired by the impossibility of living up to the greatness of your predecessors).
Frenkel wrote, played, and recorded Caicos’ forthcoming album Ascension Intention in his home studio during the pandemic, supported by a virtual network of friends, musicians, and artists who helped along the way.
Stay tuned for more new music from Caicos, coming soon.
