the juan maclean new album was released yesterday!
the 14 of april saw the release of 10 new juan maclean songs in the shape of his new album 'the future will come'. its been a long time coming since we were first mesmerized by tracks such as 'give me every little thing' in 2005 when 'less than human' was released on the new york hipster dfa label.
the first single from the new album 'one day' is a very human league sounding track (this similarity can be found in a few tracks) with trading vocals and synths between john maclean and new band mate nancy whang (lcd soundsystem synth player) the comparison is not a bad thing as john listened to dare-era human league for preparation. always a good starting point really.
other helpful hands on the album came from both parts of dfa disco duo holy ghost, nick millhiser and alex frankel. jerry fuchs, drummer from !!!, also handed over his time to help. so basically they have made a sweet album of beautiful synths and layered vocals with nice dollop of ny disco beats. what more could you ask for! go listen to it now bitches!!
watch out for album closer 'happy house', released last year but will probably be your summer anthem!!
track list:
- the simple life
- the future will come
- one day
- a new bot
- tonight
- no time
- accusations
- the station
- human disater
- happy house
