About this product
Blue States releases his long awaited fifth album 'Restless Spheres' on 16th September via Memphis Industries. It's been nine years since we last heard from Blue States, the moniker for the musical outlet of Andrew Dragazis. Recorded, produced and, for the most part, played by Dragazis at his Lightwell studios in Stoke Newington, London, Restless Spheres doffs it's cap to the soundtracks of Budd and Morricone, to 60s Greek bands such as The Forminx, to German electronic pioneers Dieter Moebius and Michael Rother and to American minimalist composers Steve Reich and Phillip Glass. Blue States began nearly twenty years ago with the young, movie soundtrack obsessed Dragazis writing and recording largely instrumental, electronic pieces alone at his parent's house in Sussex. Music had always been around in his family, his father having been involved in the Greek pop scene of the 1960's, jamming in Athenian clubs alongside pre-Aphrodite's Child legends Demis Roussos and Vangelis. The recordings found their way to nascent electronic tag Memphis Industries, who went on to a succession of 12Inchs including the smooth electro sweep of 'The Trainer Shuffle' and the filmic 'Yé-Yé' stylings of 'Your Girl'. An album InchNothing Changes Under the SunInch followed in 2000 and became a surprise hit seeing Dragazis form a band, tour the world, remix Future Sound of London, work with Roy Wood and sign to XL Recordings. Subsequent albums Man Mountain and The Soundings saw Dragazis work with more traditional song structures (including Season Song, the title track of cult Zombie flick 28 Days Later) and collaborate with vocalists Ty Bulmer, latterly of New Young Pony Club, and old school friend Chris Carr. 2007's 'First Steps Into..' saw Dragazis revert to working solo and heralded a return to his electronic origins with more extended, free form soundscapes.

Boxed set containing deluxe CD and double colored vinyl LP pressing. 2017 , the 14th studio album from the Irish quartet. Songs of Experience was produced by Jacknife Lee and Ryan Tedder with Steve Lillywhite, Andy Barlow, and Jolyon Thomas. The album is intended to be a companion piece to U2's previous record, Songs of Innocence (2014). Whereas it's predecessor explored the group members' adolescence in Ireland in the 1970s, Songs of Experience thematically is a collection of letters written by lead vocalist Bono to people and places closest to his heart. The personal nature of the lyrics reflects a brush with mortality that he had during the album's recording. Includes the single You're the Best Thing About Me.
