Timed with the November 18 release on Fake Record Label, the Los Angeles duo will masterfully bring these jaw-dropping compositions to life, armed with only a doubleneck bass/guitar, acoustic/electronic drums and a stage full of effects pedals, splitting time between rock venues and dance clubs, to a town near you.
Recorded in April 2008 at Clifton Studios in Montrose, Calif., These Promises Are Being Videotaped was created with a fretless bass, acoustic drums and an electronic kit. The two-man project of Kristian Dunn and Tim Fogarty, who pull double duty as the rhythm section in the critically acclaimed art-pop band The SoftLightes (Modular Records), explore new musical territory on their third full-length. "I just became obsessed with electro music," Dunn explains. "I've been going to a lot of DJ-type events and listening to music by artists like Boys Noize, Justice, Digitalism, Soulwax, etc. A lot of that music is really digital and created on computers. It has been our latest challenge to try to do this style of music live with real instruments and looping pedals."
