Angelo De Augustine has shared “27” and “Hologram,” a new double single available now via Asthmatic Kitty Records. A limited edition cassingle is available exclusively at the official Asthmatic Kitty store.

The tracks are De Augustine’s first new music since 2021’s collaborative LP with Sufjan Stevens, A Beginner’s Mind, and his first solo work since 2020’s dual tracks “Santa Barbara” and “Blue,” the two new singles find the reclusive Southern California artist exploring Greek and Roman history, monsters and ghouls, evil, death, faith, love, destruction, and opposing deities. These originals – recorded, produced, and mixed by Angelo.

Over the course of three intimate and exceptional solo albums, Angelo De Augustine has quickly made a name for himself as one of the most gifted young songwriters of the modern age. De Augustine began work on “27” in 2019 while recording initial demos that would become A Beginner’s Mind, and features instrumental assistance from friend and labelmate Sufjan Stevens. “Hologram” alternately disguises its depths in the body of a simple folk song. Starting in 5/4 time, the track’s dexterous octave jumping melody subliminally morphs into a 3/3 waltz, before quickly dissolving into a 4/4 chorus. Its lyrics depict dystopian and hellish landscapes painted over with age long myths, games of telephone, what it means to be evil, and how evil itself is often misunderstood.
