TR/ST Interview

Posted on May 30, 2019

TR_ST

On Sunday, June 2nd @ 10:30AM, The Pencil Sharpener airs her recent conversation with electronic composer/musician, Robert Alfons aka TR/ST.

In the five years since releasing Joyland, TR/ST’s last full-length album, Alfons wrote and recorded songs in a farmhouse in southern Ontario and in Los Angeles—where he has relocated—and worked with an all-star cast of collaborators. 

The result is a brand new two-part album entitled The Destroyer.  Songs are buoyed by crystalline drum machines and chilling synths, and capped with Alfons’ forceful vocals, which alternate between a feminine falsetto and a brittle, witchy monotone.
