about

Debut album from Oklahoma City experimental electro-pop project Kite Flying Robot. Those who saw the band's live show when it was based out of San Francisco might recognize a few tracks. Some moments reflect Kite Flying Robot's more current synthpop sound, but make no mistake, this album is an audio account of KFR's beginnings. Think post-rock acoustic guitar with unconventional progressions, warm and contrasting against electronic beats, haunting piano and vocal harmonies, occasional heavy organ or string arrangements, horn sections and synth power riffs. A little bit of joy, a bit of sadness, and a couple dancy tracks that explored a sound that was yet to come. Fan favorites tend to be Good Boy, The Hitchhiker, and Traffic Lights. Additional artwork included with full album download.

All purchases will help fund the new full length LP Kite Flying Robot is recording this winter/spring 2010 (much appreciated!).

12 songs! Over 44 minutes! Good times! OK!
More releases will be available soon.
