pitchfork-tipped duo finally released on cd. blondes journey of musical discovery is reflected in a companion disc featuring eleven remixes by friends, peers, and heroes including jd twitch of optimo, dungeon acid, sfv acid, john roberts, andy stott, robert miles (yes, that robert miles), teengirl fantasy, bicep, traxx, laurel halo, and rene hell. blondes are two jam-prone brooklyn dudes who met at ohio's oberlin college and bonded over their love of musical improvisation and dfa. both in their mid-20s, zach steinman and sam haar make spaced-out dance music that has roots in giorgio moroder synth workouts and boards of canada wispiness. their songs are blissfully patient and tend to unfurl effortlessly, as if they have all the time in the world.
