I’ll be curious to hear the rest of the album, because the band seems like such an essentially live performance-based band, and it’s always tough to translate that experience. They’re great, approachable guys, so I’ll be talking to them more. We all seem to want to break boundaries, but everybody has their own lane, which is what makes it so exciting.” “Everyone around us from the West Coast-Flying Lotus, Nosaj Thing, Daedelus, Eprom-has their own distinctive sound. From the press release:Īccording to Boreta, Drink The Sea certainly reflects the pioneering, individualist spirit of their home base. The band nods to the LA musical epicenter from which their work emanates. Yes, this is American music in the triumphantly-proud Obama era. Nothing like ghetto-blasting in a crap GM rental car.) It’s just a taste of the album to come, but nicely wrangles some thickly-arrayed synth stacks and big percussion. (I am definitely pumping that track as I drive my Chevy Aveo out of the rental lot at LAX next time I’m in your town, guys. “Drive It Like You Stole It,” the first single, is free, courtesy the band, so you can give it a listen and let us know what you think. It’s a chance both for musical and technological inspiration, wherever your own aesthetic may lead you. In support of that, they’re also mounting a big US tour, fusing sound and vision – dates below.

It’s entitled Drink The Sea, coming out on their own Glass Air label.

(Mobsters?) They have an epic debut album on the way, one of May’s most anticipated releases. This spring is a big moment for the, uh … Glitchers. And if you’re in the US, there are opportunities below to see them live.

Thanks to the trio’s openness about what they do, we’ve got the works for you here: music for free listening, a behind-the-scenes look at some of the challenges of playing laptop music together as an ensemble, and images of how the Lemur touch performance is assembled that could apply to other touch (or tactile) interfaces. (That’s to say nothing of the solo lives of the members, impressive on their own.) Triple-teaming live performance, they attack Lemur multi-touch screens, turning them into sonic battle axes. Their popularity has been almost viral, one of those rare, genuinely live acts in digital music. The Glitch Mob are one of electronic sound’s great ensembles, experts at blending sonic influences as they are at bringing together the force of their talented personnel.
