Dungeonesse - Dungeonesse

Review by Kat Waplington

For all its glitz and shine, Dungeonesse feels slightly disingenuous – a rather contrived leap onto the 'summer of disco' bandwagon.»

Dungeonesse is a collaboration between writer / producer Jon Ehrens (White Life, Art Department) and singer Jenn Wasner (Wye Oak, Flock of Dimes). Born of a mutual admiration for Top 40 and R&B and the mechanics of what makes a hit song, the duo and longtime friends began putting jams together remotely. Ehrens would send tracks from LA to Wasner on tour, and they'd bounce ideas back and forth. Part party machine programming, and part homage to the great tradition of R&B vocals, the songs of Dungeonesse retain an experimental and playful inner beauty while leading the charge to a dance floor of abundantly inclusive and carefree spirits.
