cradle straps in on their debut album boosterseat, out November 10th. boosterseat takes the listener on an Inception-level adventure through levels of disparate noises and planes of poppy dissonance. The album is a labyrinth of experimental digital rock containing rooms of compressed shoegaze, dream pop gardens, narrow breakbeat alleys, and a haze of glitchy vaporwave guiding listeners through the maze. The band was inspired by multimedia collages, drawing on themes of both wonder and aggression, and finding love, friends, and ourselves in impending doom.

cradle is a Philadelphia-based project spearheaded by Kyu Hwang, the main producer and secondary guitarist in forty winks who had a mighty successful 2025 run with nods from Pitchfork, The Guardian, Spotify, Bandcamp, and others.

cradle’s debut record was mastered by Adris Raal (Her New Knife, Full Body 2).
