In episode 25 of the Record Shop, Keith discusses negative energy, PJ Harvey, a reissue from Zwan as well as Brandon Flowers going country and Queens Of The Stone Age bringing the catacombs to KEXP. All set to a patriotic soundtrack. Dig it!

A progressive EDM duet album that unfolds like a single story told across nine chapters. Two voices begin as strangers moving through separate routines in the quiet hours before sunrise. Through chance meetings, shared moments, growing trust, distance, doubt, and ultimately reconciliation, their journey becomes the heartbeat of the record. Each song carries pieces of the last, with melodies, lyrics, and themes returning in new forms as the story evolves. Musically, the album steps into fresh territory for Static Temptations. Gone are the familiar futuristic clichés and oversized festival drops. In their place is a more cinematic, emotional, and human sound built around evolving arrangements and patient storytelling. Expect warm piano passages, deep melodic basslines, atmospheric synth textures, organic percussion, shimmering arpeggios, subtle guitar layers, and soaring male and female harmonies that grow closer with every track until they become inseparable in the finale.

The boys have geared up and thinking of a world trip to the city's and towns with the weirdest names, give this a listen and ride with them.
