# Tri Angle’s Robin Carolan to release solo EP **Tri Angle** are one of those record labels whose releases are always worth a listen; and this year, the slow-mo, dark'n'hazy aesthetic that they have pioneered was more in tune with the Zeitgeist than ever before; a fact underlined by the label when they put out an instrumental EP by **Clams Casino** in the summer. The other albums released by Tri Angle this year, though, were even better: Manchester producer **Holy Other**'s gauzy, beautiful *With U*, **Water Border**'s next-level-goth *Harbored Mantras*, and the genre-defying dronescapes of **Ayshay**'s *WARN-U*. The driving force behind this imprint is Mr. **Robin Carolan**. Before launching Tri Angle he already had quite a history in music, working as a journalist while living in New York and organizing shows at the **Museum of Modern Art**. He was a writer for the **[20 Jazz Funk Greats][1]{: target="_blank"}** blog where he gave in-depth coverage to some of the bands he would later sign to the label. Now Carolan is getting ready to drop his own debut EP *Ballad* under the moniker **Lie**, a five-track record out on March 26. That's the cover art above, and the tracklist is below. Given Carolan's love of pop and R&B as well as darker sounds, we're fully expecting to love this. **Lie -- Ballad EP** 1. Móðir 2. In Trees (Aokigahara) 3. Bedroom 4. Ballad 5.
