Vince Clarke teams with Paul Hartnoll for '2Square' LP
Vince Clarke (Depeche Mode, Yaz, Erasure) and Orbital's Paul Hartnoll teamed up for a collaborative new album. The album, titled 2Square, is considered Home House, a sub genre of electronic music. 2Square will be released June 10th via Clarke's new download only label VeryRecords, which he launched earlier this year. Here's what to expect, according to the press release from VeryRecords:
"2Square is an electronic mish-mash of cut-up vocals, infectious house grooves and blippy, distorted synths; a weird union of Orbital Rave and Erasure Pop. From the atmospheric journey of intricate poly rhythms and mournful vocals featured in ‘The Echoes’ to precision machine rhythm underpinning a zany trumpet in ‘Do-A-Bong’, 2Square is an infectious Home House odyssey that will induce toe-tapping in all and even inspire some to get off their sofas to dance."
