Jimkata – “Wait for You”

Following a near three year break, the Ithaca-bred trio (and local favorites) Jimkata has returned with its first batch of new music in four years. After sharing the single “Wanna Go” back in July, the now Los Angeles-based act has dropped another slice of ear candy in the track “Wait for You.” The vibrant and energetic song, led by a catchy hook that is a trademark of the electro-rock band, is accompanied by an equally impressive animated video. No word on whether the new singles will be a part of an upcoming release. Until then, watch the clip for “Wait for You” below.

Jimkata – “Wanna Go”

Ithaca/LA hyrbid trio Jimkata are back (finally!) with an epic synthpop jam called “Wanna Go.” Hot off the heels of a two and a half year hiatus, the synth-soaked trio popped back up with “Wanna” and it’s accompanying music video treatment, utilizing an infinite-frame shtick with a palette of vibrant-yellows. Beyond that, the song is hook-laden, stuffing their synth layers with elements of indie pop and nu disco. Say welcome back in style by checking out their video below

Tonight: Jimkata & Turkuaz

After Dark Entertainment lives up to it’s name this Halloween night when two frightfully funky bands take the stage at Waiting Room. Jimkata, an indie elctro-rock quartet from Ithaca, join Brooklyn-based funk machine, Turkuaz, for a night of good music and better vibes. Both acts are no stranger to Buffalo, frequently blessing the city with a rush of soulful jams and grooves. Turkuaz seems to be making a push to play every venue in town. See the funk collective, along with Jimkata, cross another one off the list later tonight at the Delaware Ave haunt. The 18+ show opens it’s doors at 9pm, and tickets are available both at the door and online for $15.

Tonight: Jimkata

If you’re ready to set the pace for the upcoming months, as the weather becomes a little kinder, the electro-rock grooves of Jimkata would be the right place to start. Even though the quartet is a staple within the jam circuit, with the release of their album Die Digital they set themselves aside from the aimless sea of extended improvisations. Jimkata is EDM without overkill, indie without drab, and rock without the drama. This March the group released a singles collection Feel In Light, that carries throughout a blissful chord and is best heard with the volume up high. Cosmic Dust Bunnies, hailing from Connecticut, will be opening the night with their series of high-energy ‘wavetronica’ flow. Details: 10 pieces of gold to get you in, 21+ ID to seal the deal. 9 p.m., Nietzche’s.
