When planning to release the score for Two Balloons<\/a>, I felt like it needed some extra material . . . after all, the score and the film itself are only nine minutes long.<\/p>\n

One day the thought just popped into my head, I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll turn the score into a techno song! I had never made anything that could be considered \u00e2\u20ac\u02dctechno\u00e2\u20ac\u2122, but I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve been developing more of an interest in that world of incessant, pulsing, heavy rhythm.<\/p>\n

I didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t want to simply make a remix that recycles the original recordings from the score, so I set about recording an entirely new piece of music that incorporates the main melodic themes from the score.<\/p>\n

The film Two Balloons<\/a> centers around Bernard and Elba \u00e2\u20ac\u201d two ring-tailed lemurs. I was imagining maybe one day these two find themselves at some underground techno club, and this track comes on and makes for a romping good dance party . . . TECHNO FOR LEMURS!<\/p>\n

The track was premiered on Resident Advisor<\/a>, and can now be found streaming at the Erased Tapes Soundcloud<\/a> page (and below here!). The Two Balloons EP<\/a> comes out November 9.<\/p>\n
