NYC-based artist Ruby Moon unveils a nocturnal, enjoyably eerie mixture of post-punk and dream-pop on “Desolate.” A pulsing bass line, reflective of the former style, pairs with a steady vocal composure and space-y synth lingering. Escalating guitar tones around the mid-point — “she goes to my house,” — carry the momentum further, as chirp-y guitar twangs align with sturdy, murky bass undercurrent for a thoroughly atmospheric engrossment. We’re excited to hear what’s next from Ruby Moon, whose penchant for soundscape and melody is palpable here.
