Love in the Morning (feat. Les Hauts Sommets)
A 6 track afro-pop album (28m 4s) — released June 8th 2015 on Catapulte Records
Angelo Spencer's third album is his most danceable work so far! Written and recorded in Chambéry, France, in the heart of the Alps (where he grew up) over the course of a week in February 2014.
With the help of old friends and amazing musicians Luc Detraz (Imperial Tiger Orchestra) and Karol Skonitcki (Super Fedor), Love In The Morning is a short, precise, and undeniably groovy love affair! With repurposed autotune and raw, uncompressed sound recorded by Djan (the man behind the Larsen Records sound), the album is minimal yet so full.
The Congolese Soukous style of the title track "Love In the Morning" and "Solid Home Life" will explode your heart with pure happiness. The cover of OKVancouverOK's "Nature" is a wild ride showing you that there is hope and yes! we can destroy capitalism! Feeling hungry? "Tanger, Tanger" will feed you the most beautiful meal you've ever had. Feeling tired? Relax as special guest Gilles Poizat (Mazalda) plays trumpet on "Melatonin and Weed", the fresh new waltz of 2015. Basically, we've got you covered.
This is the new sound! Get ready!
