 A couple of years ago DFA was the shissle, if you didn't know them, God were you out of the loop. It's not like they've been gone for the last couple of years, but the sound, like everything else is changing, and the blogosphere is a random mistress at best. Luckily, the wonderful label is still doing releases to the left of middle.
Hercules and Love Affair is the next thing from them. The band is basically Andrew Butler, with support from various people (Antony, Nomi, and Kim Ann). Album is co-produces by Tim Goldsworthy.
What does that mean? Well basically were looking at post punk sung by Antony (You know the loveable Antony of Antony and the Johnsons right?) - That's pretty excitting! And that's not all, throw in a remix by none other than legend Frankie Knuckles (Look at his CV)- Speechless!
Hercules and Love Affair - Blind (Frankie Knuckles Remix)
Hercules and Love Affair - Blind (Club Mix)
Album out march - A safe bet it's gonna kick ass.
Labels: Antony, DFA, Frankie Knuckles, Hercules and Love Affair |
