“Their new single, 'Ambien' features a tasteful display of production and engineering skills, mixing glistening 80s-style keyboard stabs with huge arena-sized live drums and soulful vocals with just a touch of vocoder. Fierce, sexy, and haunting, the track is a voyeuristic look into the dark side of love and obsession backed by compulsively danceable instrumentals. Listen to their track and watch a preview of the video out this month, below. One thing for sure, the song, 'Ambien' will not be putting you to sleep.”

“From this collab (Blank Paper) came their single, “Ambien” which features a tasteful display of production and engineering skills, mixing glistening 80s-style keyboard stabs with huge arena-sized live drums and soulful vocals with just a touch of vocoder. Check out the single below and leave your thoughts in the comments. enjoy!”

““Don’t wake me up,” howls Blank Paper‘s lead vocalist, Marie Kim, on their new track “Ambien.” It’s not a track that will put you to sleep in the least; instead, it’s more likely to hypnotize you with its sharp beats and bombastic percussion. You, too, won’t want to be woken up from this electronic dream of a song.

Their new track, with its blustering and glittering ’80s sound, recalls contemporary favorites like the Gorillaz and The Knife—a compelling dance beat paired with fervent vocals that give off both a sweet and edgy feel. You can’t help getting lost in this track, which makes it ideal for the dance floor. The song even comes with a 30 second teaser that’s equally as slick, replete with vivid visuals of leather jackets, darkly contrasted facial close ups, and a ret”

"The Brooklyn-based electro-pop trio used heavy bass and dancy beats to get the increasingly happy crowd moving. The heavily distorted sound was cut by the R&B-infused lungs of K. Marie Kim, whose mix of sultry and sweet gave a depth to the sound, lifting it grades above the average electro-synth-pop act we’ve grown accustomed to– fun to bop your head to, but many times lacking substance."

"And to say I was impressed may just be the understatement of the month…" "The incredibly impressive energy of the band radiated in the room as heads began to bob and hips began to rock and the audience was reminded that there is something very real and very heartfelt that exists in the dusty corners of dance music - behind the mediocre DJs and standardized sounds looped on cheap software in the city’s tiny bedrooms."
