"Midnight Bistro"
“Midnight Bistro” is a characteristically funky instrumental that begins with a whoosh of synths and some percolating rhythm guitar. Things lean into slickness before they get goosed by wiggly synthesizers that wouldn’t feel out of place on an old Ohio Players record. Then jazz horns pipe in, lending velour warmth to the mix. It’s like the great lost theme song to some ‘70s private eye show, right down to its compact two-and-a-half minute running time.

"Broken Little Dolls" feat. Shaina Shepherd
“Broken Little Dolls" (feat. Shaina Shepherd) is released!
This track is the first single to debut off the EP Light Fix. Whereas High Pulp is typically an instrumental group, this release embraces the voice as an instrument, putting it front and center in collaboration with other local Seattle artists.
Shaina Shepherd:
“‘Broken Little Dolls’ is intentionally broken yet functional. It's about the seduction of power and the promise that if you follow steps xyz you will find happiness. I've found that happiness comes from following your heart rather than your head and letting intuition lead you toward destiny. It was so much fun collaborating with High Pulp as we explored this concept.”
Light Fix - An Upcoming EP by High Pulp
Light Fix is an EP by High Pulp slated to release this Fall. It was written and recorded in collaboration with local Seattle artists & vocalists Shaina Shepherd, Falon Sierra and Jusmoni.
In keeping with the collaborative philosophy at the core of the High Pulp concept, each vocalist was sent a handful of raw, iPhone quality ideas. From there a dialog developed, and the tunes emerged from that spark of inspiration.

"High Pulp answers the new millennium’s post-trip-hop, -indie, -ambient, -drum & bass, etc. contemporary with vinyl sharp grooves, macramé arrangements, and session-level instrumentation"
