After countless EPs, singles and remixes, Minnesotan electronic producer Mux Mool (born Brian Lindgren) finally issued his debut album Skulltaste in 2010. Now, he's announced plans for a follow-up album early next year.
The new record is called Planet High School, and while the name suggests a Ramones-in-space vibe, a press release explains that the album is still a collection of instrumental hip-hop. Still, "it certainly sounds different than Skulltaste... it's funkier, more confident, and more comfortable. It sounds less like someone trying to prove a point by arguing and more like someone trying to prove a point by just being who they are. It's leading by example, sonically speaking."
For a better understanding of what that means, album track "Palace Chalice" can be downloaded here or streamed below.
Planet High School will be available on February 7 via Ghostly International.
Planet High School:
1. "Brothers"
2. "Live at 7-11"
3. "Palace Chalice"
4. "I Ruin Everything"
5. "The Butterfly Technique"
6. "Hand On the Scantron"
7. "Raw Gore"
8. "Cash 4 Gold"
9. "Get Yer Alphabets (Guns)"
10. "Baba"
