Central Heat Exchange is a collaborative project by many artists spread throughout the US and Canada, with the core members being Adam Soloway of Living Hour, Santiago RD of Daphne Tunes and Jacob and Paul Stoltz of Varsity and Pool Holograph.
The project's self titled debut album was recorded in 2020 across 13 different bedroom studios, and it explores themes of "communication, companionship, separation and collectivism." First single, Cold, is a tuneful piece of beautiful lo-fi dreampop psychedelia, and it arrives paired to an equivalently illusory clip.
Jacob Stolz remarks: "Cold is a dark and expansive psychedelic experience, and I wanted to create a video with cold colors and constantly morphing shapes to match. This was my first music video incorporating video feedback, which involves pointing a camera at its own monitor, tweaking camera placement and color settings, putting things in front of the camera, etc. It was a pretty pure and rewarding early experiment with the technique. I added Adam and my floating, singing heads into this world to complete the video."
