Pleasurecraft

Seattle, Washington's Pleasurecraft has been transporting audiences and critics alike with a melodic, outer-space combination of dance, rock and pop that sounds something like an after hours party aboard the Enterprise. Using glimmering keyboards, engineered dance beats, and crunchy, jangling guitars, Pleasurecraft feed off unusual sonic combinations that create a swirl of dark and danceable pop?sitting comfortably somewhere between modern indie and 70's synthesizer disco.

After garnering local and national critical accolades for their debut record, ?Lost Patterns,? Pleasurecraft initiated its flight plan with people all over the Northwest by sharing the stage with the likes of U.S.E., Chromeo, CEX and a host of talented local bands; performing live on radio stations KEXP and KNDD; and raking in glowing reviews from the independent music scene. Their KNDD performance was also selected for 107.7 The End's ?Live from the Morning Alternative? CD released to benefit Seattle's all-ages music venue, The Vera Project.

Now, Pleasurecraft has landed for a second time, bringing with them a massive wave of newly energized electronic indie pop. On their new CD, ?This is a Blackout,? Pleasurecraft has again combined the unusual and brought outer space back to planet earth, where the sounds of space and the discothe?que mix freely to form a deadly dance floor cocktail. Perfect for dancing all night or traveling all day, the songs on ?Blackout? are infused with stories of digital love, futuristic heartache and technological breakdowns that will leave you packing for your next trip.
