Flotation Toy Warning: Together Are the Brave

Many of you sent us a support message when we announced the cancellation of the Flotation Toy Warning’s tour dates a few days ago. And we wish to thank everyone.

That’s pretty unusual for us, but we have a special request today.

Please send us a short video (7 – 15 sec.) to this email videos@talitres.com, while you’re listening to a song of Flotation Toy Warning. Use any setting, any decoration, feel free to sing, to whistle, to dance, to laugh, …. whatever you’d like to do….we will post your videos on our the Talitres Tumblr.

Talitres welcomes new-york duo R. Missing

On October 20, new-yorked based vocalist Sharon Shy and musician Toppy aka R. Missing will release their debut mini-album “Unsummering” on Talitres.

“Unsummering”, the first release under their new moniker R. Missing, expands on The Ropes’ previous palette of Morrissey tinged lyrics and darkwave. It manages to be even more isolated lyrically than their famously nihilistic previous work, fully embracing complete detachment. Musically, fraught guitar and synth textures paint an image of an unstable world, held together only by tightly quantized electronic drum beats.

“Unsummering” available for pre-order (White Vinyl, Ltd Edition / Vinyl / CD / Digital) from the Talitres webstore.

“Mysterious darkwave entity R. Missing is making a case for shadowy alternative music that is infused with hazily deadpan female vocals, gleaming electronics, crisp beats, and noir synthesizer diffusion.” The Big Take Over

“dance track for goths” Impose Magazine

“a hazy, danceable, synth-driven funeral march.” ABC News
