Description
College return with their third full length album, a rich, glowing and nostalgic synth-based offering reminiscent of previous works heard in A Real Hero (Drive soundtrack) but at the same time exploring a unique and conceptual world Shanghai giving Colleges textural and atmospherical works a brand new dimension.
Shanghai is an album inspired by the city itself its culture and architecture; a melting pot of many things. Musically College draw on 90s sounds and the work from artists including Mark Snow, Angelo Badalamenti, Joe Hisaishi and Aphex Twin.
In Colleges own words: This record is a mysterious ballad in the heart of 1920s Shanghai An invitation to travel, a tribute to the refinement and in the delicacy of a fantasized and blurry period of time, which fed the imagination of the musicians, the artists and the architects of this mythical city. Young chinese singer Hama, a Shanghai native, also honors me by singing on the title Love Peas.
LP pressed on gold vinyl and housed in a spined sleeve with gold foil lettering and artwork and digital download card included.
