Today sees the international release of Platform by American artist Holly Herndon.
After streaming exclusively via NPR last week, Holly's second album is now available to buy and stream worldwide, as both a digital download, and on CD and double LP. A unique musician with a singular voice, Holly Herndon has become a leading light in contemporary alternative and electronic music by fearlessly experimenting within the outer reaches of dance music and pop songwriting structures.
