House of Blondes To Release New Album TIME TRIP with Alrealon Musique

Three years after their last album House of Blondes continue to develop their sound with progressive leaps and bounds. The duo still operates within long-form arrangements; tracks will extend accross space and time in a transcendent fashion, elongated themes are comprised of remarkably pleasant synthetic harmonies, but of course Time Trip will stretch even further than the band's previous output. Below you can find details on the release as well as links to stream and download the record. Time Trip is available on Vinyl LP, CD and digital formats, and there's a sweet bundle deal that includes all three formats plus a t-shirt.

Time Trip is House of Blondes' third record and their first with Alrealon Musique. Partly inspired by the first section of Daniel Boorstin's book The Discovers, it is a meditation on both the passage of time and humankind's attempt to define and quantify time's existence. 'Time Trip' is built on a foundation of both electronic and traditional instruments including analog and digital synthesizers, samplers, bass guitar, and electronic and acoustic drums. Sonically it exists near the intersection of pure, melodic music and pure, non-musical sound. Recorded over a two year period beginning in the Fall of 2015. Produced by House of Blondes in Mt Vernon, NY.
