DJANGO DJANGO “Born Under Saturn” 2LP Very Ltd ORANGE SPLATTER + CD DJANGO DJANGO “BORN UNDER SATURN"
Stunning & Very Limited ORANGE SPLATTER 2LP in Gatefold Sleeve + CD

Django Django release their new album, Born Under Saturn, via Because Music before heading out on an 11-date UK Tour later that month.  Django Django’s debut album came out in January 2012 and was lavished with praise.  It was “updated psychedelia that beguiles and delights” (The Guardian), “consistently mind-melting and often brilliant” (Q), “bursting with ideas” (Pitchfork) and “gloriously, unpredictably new” (Mojo).  

By December it had been shortlisted for the Mercury Prize and named one of the albums of the year by Rolling Stone and NME.  They became known from their electric live performances full of energy, and went on to play memorable shows at festivals across the globe including as Glastonbury and Fuji Rock.  It was when Django Django were playing Edinburgh’s Hogmanay celebrations on the final day of 2013 that producer and drummer Dave Maclean realised how far his band had come since releasing their self-titled debut album almost two years earlier.  

Recorded at Netil House in east London and Angelic Studios in Banbury, Born Under Saturn saw the song writing split four ways with Dave also producing the record.  Lyrics often emerged naturally from the sound of the music.  There are dark dramas like Found You, which draws on the myth of Faust’s deal with the devil, and Shot Down, a bloody tale of crime and betrayal.  Jim wrote the sighingly beautiful Beginning to Fade while contemplating writer’s block and the atmospheric, synth-driven High Moon, says Dave, is about people who “come alive at night”.  Born Under Saturn expands on the slippery, indefinable brilliance of the debut, finding magic in the unexplored spaces between different kinds of music, and never doing the same thing twice.
