Holly Herndon - Stream 'Platform' Exclusively Via NPR
Holly Herndon : Stream 'Platform' Exclusively Via NPR
11th May 2015

With Platform available worldwide next week, you can now listen to Holly Herndon's new album exclusively via NPR ahead of its official release.

Describing the record as "convincing enough to cast Herndon as a musician with more to say than her abstraction suggests", it follows on the heels of a wealth of favourable press for the record, along with a fascinating feature in The Guardian - reflecting that "Herndon’s ultimate triumph though is to show that thought and action can meet on the dancefloor, somewhere generally associated with hedonistic escape".

You can listen to Platform via NPR's First Listen series here.

Platform will be Holly Herndon's second album, following 2012's Movement, and is accompanied by the official video for latest single 'Interference', directed by long-term collaborators Metahaven. You can watch it on Holly's YouTube channel here, or below, along with previously aired album cuts 'Home' and 'Chorus'.  You can also see the full list of available tour dates and ticket links below.
