Electric Guest - Plural (2017) [Hi-Res]

Electric Guest – LA-based duo Asa Taccone and Matthew Compton – present the long-awaited follow up to their 2012 debut. Plural breaks the group's almost five year silence with their most confident, catchy, fully-realized music to date, featuring behind the scenes contributions from Joanna Newsom, Haim, and Justin Young from The Vaccines. Recorded in LA, Plural infuses Electric Guest's off-kilter blend of electronic, pop and R&B with an even more adventurous spirit than on 2012's Mondo. Written during a period of self-reflection, Plural embraces Taccone and Compton's original instincts, forgoing detailed arrangements and falsettos in favor of a back-to-basics approach – strong, natural vocals, intuitive musical instinct, and unbridled inspiration. The result is a sonic mélange that sounds as if it's from both the past and future, layering everything from '80s synths to iPhone drum machines to Latin and Caribbean percussion.
