Synth pop duo FOSTER THE PEOPLE is back in business after 7 years.
They just announced their 4th LP, named PARADISE STATE OF MIND.
It’ll show up on August 16.
Mark Foster(founder/singer-songwriter) about the album: ““The record started as a case study of the late ’70s crossover between disco, funk, gospel, jazz, and all those sounds. It was such a beautiful moment in time, when these different styles of music were cross-referencing each other – artists like Nile Rogers and Chic, the Tom Tom Club and Giorgio Moroder. I wanted to dive into that and figure out what they were doing.
I was also thinking about how that era has musical and social parallels to the time that
we’re in now, with the giant recession in the Seventies, the political turmoil post-Vietnam,
and other major tensions. But then you see these expressions of joy happening through
music, and I started thinking about joy as an act of defiance.”
The first appetizer, titled LOST IN SPACE is a frisky disco-pop tune, think
Pet Shop Boys – that will hop around for a while in your head. Ridiculously
infectious.
