Peaking Lights have revealed their new album Cosmic Logic, a self-produced effort that was recorded in the duo’s LA home and wrapped at C’mpny Studios with the help of mixer Matt Thornley (DFA, LCD Soundsystem). According to a press release, “It’s a record where a loving homage to ‘Der Song von Mandelay’—the first song on The Flying Lizards’ debut album (opening track ‘Infinite Trips’), The Carpenters re-interpretation of ’70s prog rockers Klaatu (the interplanetary groove of ‘Telephone Call’) and the deliriously catchy digi-dub of lead single ‘Breakdown’ all coalesce with elements of Jamaican digital dancehall, Cosmic Italo, Chicago house and acid house, Afrobeat and Zamrock, early west coast hip-hop and disco boogie crossover into something both instantly recognizable and delightfully alien.”
