- The Scottish duo will go down the self-titled route for their latest full-length, which is set for a June release.
Silicone Soul are set to release album number four later this year.
The duo of Craig Morrison and Graeme Reedie have become one of the flagship acts on Slam's Soma label, releasing their first material on the imprint all the way back in 1998. This June sees the duo continue their smooth tech-house stylings with the release of Silicone Soul, marrying wistful melodies and live instrumentation with crisp electronic beats. Fans of the current wave of streamlined minimal house should take easily to tracks like "Midnite Man" and album closer "Dogs Of Les Ihes," but there are also quite a few concessions to a more sedate home listening style. "David Vincent's Blues" sees a bluesy slide guitar sit on top of loping disco-influenced beat, while the guitar also sits at the forefront of "Koko's Song," which is a tribute to a recently deceased fan from the Bulgarian coastal city of Varna.
