Get Ready to Be Captivated by a Fusion of Art Rock and Dream Pop Magic
Emerging from the intriguing depths of Mystic, CT, Delta of Venus crafts a compelling fusion of Art Rock and Dream Pop, weaving a sonic tapestry that invites listeners to explore the uncharted territories of their musical imagination. With their latest release, “Disengaged b/w Slipping,” set to drop on 26th November 2024, this reformed band is making waves across genres, eschewing the traditional in favour of the evocative and experimental.
Delta of Venus originally blossomed in a basement practice room in 1993, where Ellery Twining, Mat Tarbox, and Dawn Estabrooks grabbed unfamiliar instruments with the burning desire to create something unique. Fast forward to the present, and the band’s sound is an avant-garde exploration of shoegaze and indie pop, pushing boundaries with their current reimagining of musical composition.
“As music curators at PopHits.Co, it’s a pleasure to witness the evolution of such a distinctive sound,” we declare with conviction, recognising the artistry in Delta of Venus’s approach.

In the majestic realm of Art Rock and Dream Pop, Delta of Venus stands alongside noteworthy influences, crafting a niche much like the ethereal musings of Cocteau Twins or the groundbreaking textures of Radiohead. By freeing themselves from the verse-chorus structure, Delta of Venus presents a soundscape where musical movements intertwine like an intricate dance, inviting listeners into an experience that is profoundly more organic and resonant.
The two new tracks, “Disengaged” and “Slipping,” were crafted in Mystic’s own Dirt Floor Recording and Production. Unfortunately, due to travel concerns, Dawn couldn’t contribute further, leading to the serendipitous discovery of new vocalist Issy, whose voice was described as “a gem” by Eric at The Floor. Issy’s immediate connection with the band’s sound adds a fresh layer, echoing Ellery’s refined songwriting approach honed from his solo ventures.
Delta of Venus is not just about sound; it’s about narrative and exploration, taking listeners on a journey with each performance. As their music graces platforms and stages, there’s an invitation to immerse yourself in their world. By venturing to Website, Spotify, Facebook, Instagram, X, TikTok, BandCamp, and YouTube, fans can engage with an evolving artistry that promises connection beyond the auditory.
