Lemaitre Mix Indie and Pop, Plus Scientific Theories
. The duo, Ulrik Denizou Lund and Ketil Jansen, have now relocated to Los Angeles and are still working on a full-length album, but on July 22 they'll drop Singularity, the latest in a series of EPs they've been releasing since they first formed in 2010. The EP includes guest spots from Chuck Inglish of the Cool Kids on "All I Need" and LOLO on "Wait," while the track "High Tide," has already garnered a good deal of attention. You should be warned before listening though, that "High Tide" is not a love song. Lemaitre strive to write songs that will get played at parties, but they steer clear of typical subject matter. "We try not to write songs about love, and we definitely are not writing songs about partying, because that's lame to make a song about partying that you play at a party," says Lund. So in Lemaitre's music there's no love, no partying and, it turns out, no samples. This became the rule after the guys realized how expensive clearances would be. Instead, the duo now make their own samples. "It's really creatively fun to be like, 'We want that kind of sound,'" Lund says. "And try to emulate that sound making, like, just a four-bar loop trying to sound like a '70s recording. And then just f-k with it." Lund and Jansen took their band name from the Georges Lema�tre, a Belgian priest and physics professor best known as the man who first proposed the theory of the expanding universe, aka the Big Bang theory. And their music also delves into the great unknown. Find out about that and more here. Radio.com is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
