(DD Press)

British synth-pop act DJANGO DJANGO reelased their 5th LP, named OFF PLANET.

A concept album, with each of its four parts representing a planet. A swirling record filled with multiple dance thrills, enough to have 24-hour summer parties on the planet of your choice.

UNCUT magazine said: “There’s no denying that this is the band’s
most accomplished and ambitious record to date.” Score: 8/10.

Just now DD shared a razzle-dazzle video for SLIPSTREAM,
a terrific hip-activating booster that doubles your adrenalin
production.

The clip is directed by Daniel Nellis.

DD: “The lyrics are a bit of an ode to watching the Tour de France with Pete Shelley’s signature track playing as a kid. We thought it would be fun to build upon that with the video, which sees Vinny (note: lead vocalist) being put through his paces, ramping up in speed until he breaks beyond reality”.

Jump on your bike.
The race must go on.

MORNINGFACE & SLIPSTREAM Joined Sonic Forces For Psychedelic Pearl… ‘I DON’T WANNA KNOW’

Posted on by JL

Daily fuel to load your sonic batteries…

Ethereal Portland daydreamer Kate Hummel aka MORNINGFACE shared a stirring
beauty online. I DON’T WANNA KNOW is a delightful collaboration with Mark Refoy
who was part of Spacemen 3 and Jason Pierce‘s awesome Spiritualized. After leaving Spiritualized (1994) Refoy started his own – still ongoing – project called Slipstream.

Every great song has a great story. Here’s Hummel‘s story about how she met Refoy
and how they joined forces to create this amazing, mind-pleasing vibration…

“I came across a ‘Slipstream’ song on Soundcloud called Girl From The Black Country.
It really blew my mind. I didn’t even put two and two together that Mark was part of my
two favorite bands ‘Spacemen 3’ and ‘Spiritualized’. I had wanted to collaborate with him
but was afraid to ask, but one day I did and he said yes. I had a rough song called ‘I Don’t Wanna Know’. I sent it to him and what he sent me back actually made me nauseous when
I first heard it, it was that good. It sounded a bit like Spiritualized’s Shine A Light with the arpeggiated guitar and I hold that song in the highest esteem. Recently I was in England
and we actually got to meet up and finish the song. I added harmonica in B which we then bastardized unrecognizable with repeater into a drone. Mark’s a prince of a man and a
brilliant musician/producer. A complete honor to work with him and have his support.”

I DON’T WANNA KNOW will touch your sonic senses instantly. Its transcendent resonance and elevating tunefulness are truly delightful and entrancing. The starry-eyed combination of MORNINGFACE‘s soulful vox and SLIPSTREAM‘s magical guitar wizardry is a sparkling triumph. Sit back, relax, press the button and enjoy the mind-massage right here…
