Release Date: 10th August 2016

Released 16th September 2016.

Cubicolor present their debut album - ‘BRAINSUGAR’ - to be released on September 16th on Anjunadeep (“One of the hottest electronic labels in the world” - Hype Machine).

Cubicolor have emerged as one of the most exciting acts to come through the European underground in recent times. Championed by Pete Tong as one of his artists to watch, praised by Mixmag, Spin, Clash, and DJ Mag, and supported by a host of heavyweight DJs, Cubicolor look set to break through with their anticipated debut LP.

The striking and alternative sound developed across a string of acclaimed EPs on Anjunadeep and a remix for Howling (Âme’s Frank Wiedemann & Ry X) on Monkeytown Records has found it’s way into the sets of many an A-list DJ, including Sasha, George Fitzgerald, Kölsch, Joris Voorn and Mano Le Tough.

Having launched in 2014 with two members, Dutch producers Ariaan Olieroock and Peter Kriek, Cubicolor now welcome British vocalist , and former Duologue front-man Tim Digby-Bell into the band as their third member, following much loved collaborations on ‘Falling’ and ‘Mirror Play’ over the past 12 months. In his time with Duologue, Tim produced, co-wrote and sang on two records acclaimed by the likes of The Guardian, NME, DIY Mag and The Line Of Best Fit.

On ‘Brainsugar’ we hear an evolution in Cubicolor’s sound across a host of diverse and infectious tracks, combining beautiful songwriting with brilliantly cohesive clarity, echoing their influences; Radiohead, Massive Attack and Moderat to name a few. Tim’s lyrical depth and haunting vocal style shine throughout the album, which features 8 vocal tracks and 4 instrumentals.

The LP’s first single ‘Falling’ is a cascading piece of melancholic house music, which has amassed over 4 million plays on Spotify, topped Beatport’s Electronica chart, and been featured on global specialist radio (including BBC Radio 1, BBC 6 Music, KCRW, KEXP, SiriusXM Chill, 1Live, Rai 2, 3FM and Studio Brussels).

Released alongside the announcement of the album, ‘Dead End Thrills’ is a fusion of Cubicolor’s trademark sounds, blending trippy atmospheric electronica, layered with textured melodies with Tim’s poignant vocals.

Throughout August and September 2016 Cubicolor bring their well-honed electronic sound to venues large and small across North America for a DJ tour, including a string of underground club shows and notable festival performances at Electric Zoo and Nocturnal Wonderland where they perform on Anjunadeep label stages alongside the likes of Âme, George Fitzgerald, Lane 8, HVOB, Henrik Schwarz and Yotto. Cubicolor are currently developing a full live show to be launched later this year.

‘Brainsugar’ is set to be the seventh artist album to be released on Anjunadeep, an A&R hotbed celebrated for the release of debut LPs from Dusky and Lane 8. With 250+ single releases and a string of iTunes #1 albums and compilations under its belt, the label has distinguished itself as one of the scene’s leading imprints, earning glowing coverage everywhere from Resident Advisor to Pitchfork, whilst receiving heavy support on BBC Radio 1 from Annie Mac, Pete Tong, B.Traits and Phil Taggart.

Dead End Thrills - Lyrics

You’re not the first of your kind
Staring at your hands
Waiting in company lines

Another secret spills
Just me and my dead end thrills
Did you think that we’d come back from this place
Once we had a taste

You can get whatever you want
But you’re holding out for something more

Everything must go
So what are you waiting for?
I just don’t know when to stop
I’m just getting started up

You can get whatever you want
But you’re holding out for something

The cover art is MDMA under a microscope, quite fitting and reminiscent of good times :)

This is a masterpiece in itself, but I urge everyone who have tried mdma - listen to this while on it... That's just life changing.

You're not the first of your kind
I'm starin' at your head
Waiting in company lines
Another secret spills
Just me & my dead end thrills
Did you think that we'd come back from this place?
Once we had a taste
But you can get whatever you want
You can get whatever you want
But you're holdin' back for somethin'
You can get whatever you want
Yeah you can get whatever you want
But you're holdin' back for somethin'
Yeah you're holdin' back for somethin'
So what are you waitin' for?
I just don't know when to stop
I'm just gettin' started up
You can get whatever you want
Yeah you can get whatever you want
But you're holdin' back for somethin'
But you can get whatever you want
Yeah you can get whatever you want
But…
