System Exclusive are the duo of Ari Blaisdell (Lower Self, The Beat Offs) and Matt Jones (Male Gaze, Castle Face Records). A little different than your average Castle Face group, they are decidedly synthpop, but with a raw, organic feel thanks to live drums and guitar alongside vintage keyboards and drum machines.
Having released the "We Follow" single last year, System Exclusive's self-titled debut album will be out March 4 via Castle Face. We've got the premiere of new single "Inline Online," which marries current garage rock with classic synthpop a la The Human League or Depeche Mode. Check out the video, directed by Schlee, below.
