What if Low collaborated with Beach House to make an album of sultry super-slow R&B jams? Bad Passion's debut EP Doin' It Slow answers that question, combining soulful vocal harmonies with hazy organ lines over synth bass and electronic drums. Equally indebted to chillwave artists like Gayngs, jj, and Nite Jewel, Bad Passion's music walks the line between tongue-in-cheek and dead seriousness. Their songs cover such subjects as stealing cars, lust in racquet sports, and how good they are at "getting results." There's also a saxophone, a Beach House cover, and an exploding sun in there.
Bad Passion is Alt and Lesley, friends who recorded Doin' It Slow in a bedroom in their house while they were living together in Toronto. Despite having only just begun in October 2011, Bad Passion has already made influential fans in the blogosphere, landing a coveted spot on tastemaking blog 20jazzfunkgreats' best of 2011 list. Alt also makes dark electronic pop as Digits in London, England.
