About The Golden Filter


The Golden Filter are an enigmatic New York electro duo that started gaining a buzz from their remixes of Cut Copy and Peter Bjorn and John. Even with their identities hidden from the Web, word of their music spread after they sent their first song, a breathy, arpeggiated disco jam titled "Solid Gold," to a few music blogs in the summer of 2008. Dummy magazine signed Stephen Hindman (production/synths) and Penelope Trappes (vocals) to their fledgling label soon after and the two made plans to play SXSW before going on tour with the Presets. In 2009, the Dummy label released "Solid Gold" as a limited 7" with "Favourite Things" as the B-side. The duo's long-awaited debut album, Voluspa, was released in April of 2010 on Brille Records. ~ Jason Lymangrover, Rovi
