Little Dragon have announced a new EP.
'Lover Chanting' will arrive on November 9 and marks their first release for Ninja Tune, with whom they've recently signed. A limited edition vinyl release will follow on November 16.
The EP was self-produced by the Scandinavian band in their Gothenburg studio. It follows their BADBADNOTGOOD collaboration, Tried, which dropped earlier in the year.
Lead vocalist, Yukimi Nagano explained the inspiration for the record:
“The force of love. Not only between two people but the force of love in this universe as the ultimate ecstasy. Whether that is while you’re dancing at a disco forgetting where you are or just staring at the moon on a clear night, it can be anything. A swim in the ocean, a glance at a stranger--it’s a personal individual thing. Call it what you want but we have all felt it. So, embrace the great mystery of everything that your brain can’t grasp and lose track in the most beautiful sense.”
Head below to listen to the EP's title track. It's a dance-pop number that's likely to fill dancefloors, or at the very least get some toes tapping, with its propellant beats.
Prior to the record's release, Little Dragon will return to London for a show at the Printworks on November 2. Tickets are on sale now.
