For the title track off BIG GIGANTIC's newest album-which charted at #10 on the Dance/Electronic Album and #18 Heatseekers Album Billboard charts respectively as well as #2 on iTunes Electronic Album chart upon its release onFebruary 11--the two bands got together for tequila shots and fun in the sun after a festival play at Mayan Holidaze in Mexico. "We took the title track off of our new album, The Night Is Young, got a bunch of our friends and flew down to Mexico to party and shoot a music video about letting loose, raging until the sun comes up and making the most of every little moment," Lalli toldRollingstone.com. "The Night Is Young!"
THE NIGHT IS YOUNG, which marks the fifth album by Boulder, CO-based saxophonist/producer Lalli and drummer Salken following Fire It Up (2009), Wide Awake (2009), A Place Behind The Moon (2010) and 2012's Nocturnal (which has received more than one million downloads to date), is an eclectic mix of tracks that span genres from electronic and dance to hip hop and electro soul. There are eight songs on THE NIGHT IS YOUNG including "Touch The Sky," a blazing instrumental that made its debut in late 2013 to critical acclaim throughout the blogosphere, as well as the crushing dubstep song "Lets Go!," the dazzling sax- hooked track "Just For The Thrill" and velvety number "Shooting Stars." Critical quotes follow below.
