- The UK trio's debut full-length will land via Modeselektor's label in August.
Dark Sky will release their debut album, imagin, through Modeselektor's Monkeytown Records on August 22nd.
The trio of Carlo Anderson, Matthew Benyayer and Thomas Edwards already have a close working relationship with Modeselektor: they've put out two EPs on their 50 Weapons offshoot and have appeared on several Monkeytown/50 Weapons compilations. They said releasing the album on Monkeytown "feels like a very natural fit for the record given how our sound has evolved during the writing process over the last two years."
They add: "In terms of influences there are too many to mention, but our constant search for records to play on NTS Radio has definitely been a big factor in helping us gather new ideas and inspiration. Writing the album was also heavily influenced by how we were going to interpret it in a live scenario, which is how we will be touring the album in the very near future."
Ahead of imagin, Monkeytown will release a single from Dark Sky called Silent Fall on August 1st. You can watch a brief album teaser below:
