A few weeks ago I posted about Los Angeles, indie post-rock duo, Emerald Portal's latest single OneHundredTwenty. I'm happy to report that Trouble In Paradise, the EP featuring OHT, was released last Friday, June 23.

Self produced by the duo, Trouble In Paradise is a stimulating collection of synthesized songs.

Thomas Ouziel and Brad Rundblade, masterminds behind Emerald Portal, created a compilation of sonic tracks that surpass traditional music structure. Their technique of bridging the worlds of cinema and music to create an immersive experience is evident in this EP. "The general theme of the album is the dichotomy between city life and the calmness and beauty of nature and contemplating the resulting feelings of the confinements of social norms created from being mice in a cage" explains Ouziel. The eight-track EP transports listeners to another dimension by creating a sense of nature and serenity.

You can download or stream Trouble In Paradise on all digital music platforms worldwide.

Los Angeles based duo Emerald Portal is releasing their brand new single OneHundredTwenty today, May 26.

OneHundredTwenty is an electronic-led track with a dreamy atmosphere and indie rock influences. Stream it on SoundCloud clicking on the image and buy it now on iTunes.

Emerald Portal is the brainchild of Thomas Ouziel and Brad Rundblade; with much influence from their cinematic backgrounds (a sound designer and writer, respectively), their music delves into worlds of visual and auditory exploration.
OneHundredTwenty and the previous single All The Running will be included in their new EP, Trouble In Paradise, set for release later this year.
