Hercules and Love Affair, the new disco throwback project of Andrew Butler is about to get a full-length release on DFA Records.

Butler, the writing muscle behind the project, celebrates the hedonistic thrills of ‘70s disco on the album, which is produced by Tim Goldsworthy from DFA and features additional vocals from Kim Ann, Nomi and Antony Hegarty of the Mercury Prize-winning project I Am a Bird Now. The album will be preceded by the single, ‘Blind,’ a track which features Hegarty’s uniquely masculine/feminine vocals.

Tracklist

01 Time Will
02 Hercules Theme
03 You Belong
04 Athene
05 Blind
06 Iris
07 Easy
08 This Is My Love
09 Raise Me Up
10 True False/Fake Real

Hercules and Love Affair will be released via EMI/DFA in Europe on March 10, 2008. No release date has been set yet for the United States.comment 30 Comments

Fri, 02 May 2008Apparently it will be released in the US now but in June. Regardless I picked it up at Virgin as an import over the weekend and they were definitely hyping it over there...they had it prominently on display in dance and indy section.
Overall I'm in love with the entire thing...Love it.

Sun, 06 Apr 2008Interesting review. First bit was inaccurate though. The second LCD sondsystem album was excellent (and universally well received), and the rapture one wasn't too shabby either.
