minus32heartbeat shares debut album DHRICMV

minus32heartbeat wears his heart on his sleeve with his debut album DHRICMV. The album was released on September 6th, via Big Leather Jacket Music

Produced, written and recorded by Matt Friedlander (minus32heartbeat), the album has eight magical tracks that capture the bustling chaos of New York (where he lives), while offering a magnificent exploration of love and life. With a fresh blend of indie rock, electronic music and alt-pop, this album is a valiant and genuine reflection of minus32heartbeat’s artistic vision. Before going solo, he was a member of the band The GoSation, which garnered attention from notable outlets like NME and Spin in the mid-2000s.

Creating DHRICMV was profoundly personal for Matt, as he drew inspiration from his own lived experiences with love and the complexities of relationships. The journey began in 2023 during a challenging financial period. However, he was fuelled by the passion to create music, and took the leap to invest in equipment and follow his artistic instincts. Inspired by legends like The Velvet Underground and Oasis, he has crafted a distinctive soundscape marked by poignant songwriting and sublime compositions.
