Little Dragon - Ritual Union LP/CD (PEACEFROG)
Available here on CD, here on LP
Little Dragon have been crafting electronic-based pop music for a little over five years. Since debuting on the UK’s Off The Wall imprint, the four-piece’s sound has touched on a variety of aesthetics, ranging from stripped-back vocal-driven folk tracks to more upbeat and house-oriented efforts. The new album sees the group primarily return to the upfront style of song writing they showcased on their last full-length, Machine Dreams, with analogue drum machines and vintage synthesizers paired with the group’s knack for experimental pop.
Since 2009?s critically acclaimed Machine Dreams, Little Dragons has not sat still, touring the globe and making some high profile friends along the way. No one in their right mind would have expected the future of soul music to come from Gothenburg, Sweden. But there it is in the dreamy, rhythmical, shifting, moody rainbow creature that is Little Dragon. It is easy to see why some of the world’s top musical luminaries are falling over themselves to work with them. Stylishly seductive in their own right, their 2007 self-titled debut was filled with classy songwriting and cool production. Machine Dreams showed a bouncier side, as they flexed their dancing nous and came up with an album that would turn Prince’s head. Damon Albarn invited them to collaborate on two tracks for last year’s Gorillaz record Plastic Beach, which became album highlights.
