Description
SEXBEAT Records (White Lung, Eagulls, GAPS) are thrilled to announce the release of Moon Gangs, aka Will Young's, three song debut record. The tracks (I, II, & III) were recorded over three months in late 2013, edited down from ten hours of improvised synth recordings (made entirely using looped Eurorack modular synths), into three intense movements, each just shy of ten minutes long. The EP was inspired by John Carpenter and Tangerine Dream soundtracks, plus synth driven Krautrock like Ashra Tempel and Popol Vuh, and probably fits contextually somewhere in between modern day electronic outsiders The Haxan Cloak and Blanck Mass, and successful diy bands; Hookworms (this EP was also mixed by Matt J of Hookworms / Suburban Studios) and Echo Lake (Linda Jarvis designed the artwork for the sleeve and record, and). All tracks were mastered by East London producer and engineer Rory Attwell (Palma Violets, Big Deal, Veronica Falls, etc). Live, Will performs in a variety of different set ups, sometimes solo, sometimes performing with one, two or three drummers. All live shows are performed live and fully improvised with no computers, samples or backing tracks. Moon Gangs ''Moon Gangs'' is out as a digital download and a limited edition one sided 12" vinyl. The record sleeve and the blank side of the vinyl have been screen printed onto, for this limited edition release.
