Titled Pipe-defy, the album is slated for release on October 18th, with the lead single, \"Lords Of Lithium,\" giving a first taste of what's to come.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith nods to the venerable influences of funk and 70s\/80s synth dance classics, Pipe-defy is a stylistic departure from his previous albums. For this project, Craig explains wearing his influences on his sleeve; “At around the time that I was starting to write songs for the album, my mum gave me a bunch of old CDs from my early teens that I hadn’t listened to in ages. There was heaps of Grandmaster Flash, Herbie Hancock, Zapp, Stevie Wonder and other stuff like that. When I kept writing songs they kinda just started sounding like that… so I guess it kinda just kick started an old obsession I had for that style of music.” This is particularly evident as each track beckons listeners to lose themselves in a tapestry of mesmeric synth rhythms, sobering orchestra hits and foot tapping, knee slapping, hand clapping groove.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePipe-defy stands as a testament to Craig’s resolve to explore new aesthetics with each new release, furthering his quest to push himself to into new song-writing terrain. \"When I was writing the songs for the album, (which I had about 20 of), if I wasn’t bopping my head subconsciously to it, then it was cut.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Recordstore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49977182814450,"sku":"8704025051","price":8.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0850\/1621\/5794\/files\/PEPD.png?v=1787648605","url":"https:\/\/recordstero.shop\/products\/pipe-defy-orange-vinyl-lp","provider":"recordstero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
