Kyle Starkey & Paige Tomlinson

You found this. Be the first one here.

Two names on a flyer in the same font usually means neither is big enough to headline alone, and in bass music that arrangement produces better nights than a single headliner does. Both sets are shorter, both artists are trying harder, and the back-to-back section at the end is where the interesting decisions happen. The sound is glitch-adjacent and rhythmically awkward on purpose, closer to sound design than to songwriting, which either grabs you in the first ten minutes or never will. A Thursday in a Hollywood basement, late start, crowd of a few hundred who follow this closely enough to know both names. Nothing about it is an occasion, and the people there would consider that a compliment. Rooms this size also mean the artists are standing at the bar before and after, which in this scene is normal and in most others would be a selling point.
