Tanlines: Mixed Emotions
Date
03/20/2012
Brooklyn’s electro-dance-pop duo Tanlines will release their long-awaited Mixed Emotions March 20th, 2012. Self-recorded, the album was then mixed in the Miami studio of legendary engineer Jimmy Douglass (Timbaland, Aaliyah, Justin Timberlake, Television, Roxy Music).
“Sometimes painful, sometimes transcendent, and ultimately a very precise labor of love, Mixed Emotions simply feels vivid. Songs pulse and linger, filled with percussive textures, bright, warm synths and driving kick drums to juxtapose the album’s lyrical melancholia. The record obscures and blurs the lines between synthetic and organic, real and fake, happy and sad. It is the sound of stadium pop in small spaces.” — True Panther
Here is their new song “Brother”
