The vinyl that comes out on the 28th is two songs, so I don't see why they wouldn't put both songs on streaming.

Yeah I think two songs will go up and there'll be an initial video for one of them.

I'll let them tell it...

Seems to be only Vivien uploaded to streaming.

Instant classic, anyway. Chino played this one on Mixlr ages ago. Vocal hook is bulletproof great. Really enjoying Shaun's sound design on these new songs too.

Fucking FANTASTIC. Is it a different song they were promoting tho? Sounds different

Vivien's okay but not really clicking with me. I'll give it some more spins tomorrow. I didn't hear him play it on Mixlr but I'm pretty sure Permanent.Radiant is referencing another song that I absolutely loved. Looking forward to the EP. I guess we'll get another EP or two down the line and they'll eventually combine them into an album like they did with the first album.

True.

The song grew on me after more listens, it's very catchy and Chino sounds great as usual. The only thing that is still throwing me for a loop is the instrumental is very busy, there's a lot of layering going on here, and I kind of wish there was a couple moments where they would let it "breathe" more. Maybe I need to listen to it on a really good set of headphones to get all the nuances, but unfortunately my pair just broke.

Also I saw some comments saying the chorus is reminiscent of Britney Spears' Baby One More Time and there's definitely something to that lol. I guess there's some kind of connection after that Change and Toxic mashup made the rounds.

So does the vinyl include another song? (Day One)

Inkblades · **Reply #2530 on:** Oct 30, 2022, 08:49 PM

Yup Day One is on the vinyl and it will probably get ripped to the internet soon. I'm gonna wait for the EP to hear it though.

do we have a link?

GlimmeringMaggit · **Reply #2532 on:** Nov 03, 2022, 04:36 AM

Anyone got the vinyl yet? Super curious about Day One.

GlimmeringMaggit · **Reply #2533 on:** Nov 05, 2022, 01:07 AM

Day One's been uploaded by someone on Reddit. Proper chill. Not that into it on first listen but it feels like a cool palate cleanser on an album/EP.

Inkblades · **Reply #2534 on:** Nov 05, 2022, 05:56 PM

That's another one he played on Mixlr. I remember thinking it was my least favorite of what he played but I'm digging it more now. It's a chill vibe - very tropical sounding.

Sensation dropping on Friday.

The EP is six songs lol. But this would be the third as only Vivien and Day One are out.

Inkblades · **Reply #2538 on:** Nov 17, 2022, 02:52 AM

If you go on the PERMANENT.RADIANT EP page on Apple Music, the cover is now animated. Pretty cool.

SENSATION is an absolute BANGER. Might be my favorite of the tracks released so far. Gotta give a few more listens for it to replace INITIATION. Man, it's so different.
