  • Italic's indie house wonder Popnoname will release his second full-length later this month. Titled Surrounded by Weather, the album sees Jens Uwe Beyer continuing on his road of house/pop/whatever music. Hard to categorize neatly, it's an album that uses electronic music as a jumping off point, taking in elements of shoegaze, glam and myriad other genres into a stew that tastes a lot like Popnoname. The plodding electro pop number "Touch," which memorably features Beyer's cooing voice providing back-up to himself throughout, is due to be the first single from the album and will feature remixes from The Field and Tennishero. Tracklisting 01. 2012 02. Touch 03. ID Card 04. The Movement 05. Crack 06. Perspective 07. The Smallest Part 08. Love 09. Storm Italic will release Popnoname's Surrounded by Weather on October 20, 2008.
