“...structured electro-pop melodies...engaging velvety vocals...” - CMJ
...certainly a band to look out for in the future. - Lauren Laverne, BBC - BBC
One minute rife with warm and contagious dance-pop beats, the next minute boasting edgy rock riffs, Kodacrome’s songs are full of relentless energy and shimmery appeal. - BreakThruRadio
...singer Elissa Pociask has carved out a unique space that'll make you wonder why no one has thought of pairing an acoustic guitar with casiotones before. - The Deli NYC
Kodacrome’s EP, Perla is actually quite hard to pin down. At times it leans heavily on danceable electronics; at others it’s rough-and-ready rock; at others still it has a light and acoustic feel. What’s impressive is that the blend still manages to make sense. - Listen Before You Buy

...intelligent, polished, and catchy electronica. - 90.3FM Kingston
...whispery, yearning, reaching-out-for-something vocals, matching that with the arrangements that sweep from indie pop to 80s New Romanticism to mid-90s Garbage. - Culture Of Me
The gritty electric sound of Brooklyn combined with the uplifting spirit of San Francisco. - Sergeant Sparrow
Kodacrome is seductive, and far from the tepid intentions of their forbearers...Think Sleigh Bells on Ritalin delivered by your best friend’s sexy older sister when you were fifteen. - Story Of Sound
Pociask’s deep, rich vocals often become yet another instrument for Kodacrome’s crafty experiments - Loud Loop Press
"Modern Man" pins Pociask's sonorous vocals (akin to Emily Haines') against the backdrop of Casey's uncluttered rhythm." - Knox Road
"Their catchy tunes and complex, arrangements were a refreshing change for Vineyard audiences and the crowd showed their approval." - MVTimes

Bio
Kodacrome members Elissa and Ryan met on tour in the spring of 2010. Shortly thereafter, the pair began making music together from opposite coasts - (Elissa in San Francisco, and Ryan in Brooklyn). Elissa decided to relocate to the east coast to pursue the project more seriously. The pair recorded their debut EP, "Perla," which was self-released in March 2012.
Before the advent of Kodacrome, Ryan created, produced and performed under the name KaeoFLUX. Notable collaborations include those with Pilot Balloon, M. Sayyid (Anti-Pop Consortium), Zucchini Drive, and Madame Psychosis. KaeoFLUX also released his debut solo album "Form" in 2010. In her pre-Kodacrome years, Elissa wrote and performed under the moniker Elissa P., both for a stint with Brenmar (These Are Powers), and solo in San Francisco. The KaeoFLUX/Elissa P. union was a seamless and rewarding overlap of these two spheres.
