Freeland
Freeland release new single "Do You" on 15th June. In Freeland's words "The remit on this one was if Led Zeppelin were making electronic music what would it sound like? And this is what we came up with. Helped quite a bit by having Tommy Lee on drums, creating that big John Bonham style drum sound".
Do You offers the unexpected, switching uptempo bangers for an 89 BPM groover that eludes any club-genre pigeonholing, and proves a mid-tempo can still set dancefloors aflame. It has an irresistibly massive, Moog synth hook, quickly mangled with choppy glitch edits and thundering kicks and snares that split the difference between Bonham and Run-DMC.
Album "Cope™" is released on 8th June on Matine Parade. You can now hear the entire new album streaming at Freeland.FM with commentary by Adam, and the cast of those involved. Tommy Lee of Motley Crue played drums, Alex Metric co-produced it, Twiggy Ramirez plays bass. Joey Santiago of the Pixies and Tony Bevilacqua of Distillers/Spinerette play guitar. Plus there is a collaboration with Soundpool, vocals from Brody Dalle (Distillers Spinerette) and Gerry from DEVO. Freeland's new frontman Kurt Baumann also sings on four songs.
