Brian Batz' Sleep Party People will return this May with a new album called Floating. You can stream 'In Another World', the record's spooky, plodding, alt-rocker with a hair raising string section right now below.
Sleep Party People was formed in 2008 as a project of Brian Batz, influenced by artists like Boards Of Canada, David Lynch and Erik Satie, starting a unique proposal of the Danish music scene. Since its beginning, the group has been characterized by wearing rabbit masks in their photoshoots and live performances.[1]
Quickly gaining a great acceptance, the group was featured in the Soundvenue, the most prestigious magazine in the Danish music scene. After this, the record label Neh-Owh Records chose two of their songs to be featured in a compilation EP.
With this success, the group was featured in Dutch and British magazines. Their first album was reviewed favorably: it was called “one of the strangest and most beautiful released in a long, long time”, and “a hazy, dreamy and wondrous debut album” by two of the largest newspapers in Denmark.[1]
Floating is out May 30th in Asia and Scandinavia, and June 2nd everywhere else on Blood & Biscuits. See the tracklist below.
