MAN WITHOUT COUNTRY ANNOUNCE HEADLINE UK TOUR DATES FOLLOWING 'MAXIMUM ENTROPY' LP RELEASE ON JANUARY 19TH....
INCLUDES NEW SINGLE FEAT. MORGAN KIBBY (WHITE SEA, M83)
“This monumentally huge song sounds, variously, like The Knife on ecstasy, Hurts on downers, ‘Disco’-era Pet Shop Boys or even the best song Trevor Horn never produced for Dollar” CMU
Electronica duo Man Without Country are set to embark on extensive headline UK tour in February & March 2015. The tour follows the release of their new album Maximum Entropy, due for release on January 19th on Lost Balloon records.
On Maximum Entropy Man Without Country - Welsh duo Ryan James and Tomas Greenhalf - combine sleek electronic minimalism with a love of classic pop music, merging the pared-back synths of Ulrich Schnauss and East India Youth with the adventurous quest to redefine pop shared with early electronic pioneers like The Human League. The album was recorded, produced and mixed entirely by the band in their home studios in South Wales, and features a sensual reinterpretation of Old-Skool Rave classic: The Beloved’s "Sweet Harmony", re-imagined for a new generation of clubbers while maintaining the original’s state of bliss.
Man Without Country’s Ryan James provided the hypnotic, fragile vocal on Röyksopp’s recent single Sordid Affair, travelling to the seminal Norwegian duo’s Bergen studio to record the track, which is taken from their new album The Inevitable End. As remixers, Man Without Country have a varied CV that’s seen them remix everyone from Two Door Cinema Club and Band Of Skulls to Moby, Miike Snow and Active Child. In a package that includes Erol Alkan and Factory Floor, the band recently remixed the Interpol single My Desire.
