2023 sees Dark Horses awaken from their slumber to deliver a pandemic-delayed record of moody, sonic atmospheres with a booster shot of soul. Recorded alongside technical wizard Bob Earland (Radiophonic Workshop), While We Were Sleeping is musically complex and daring -as the album unfolds, Lisa Elle's vocals trade blows with wiry guitar lines and motorik drums, float over fuzzed-up basslines and dissolve into layers of woozy analogue synths. Lyrically, the album reflects the challenging circumstances in which it was conceived, treading the razor's edge between nihilism and collectivism, anxiety and serenity, suspicion and trust. But the thread running through it is a sense that we're all sharing this short act we call life, so the least we can do is show each other empathy, respect and - hell, who cares what they say - love. This 12Inch LP is pressed on clear w/lime green smoke 140 gram vinyl with a gatefold sleeve and a card.

Danny L Harle's album Cerulean marks his first full-length on XL Recordings and his most definitive artistic statement to date. Following 2021's immersive Harlecore project, Harle considers Cerulean his true debut. InchThis is my debut album-It really is the big one.InchCerulean is a voyage into vast, alien sonic landscapes where speaker-blowing bass and euphoric trance synths meet intricate textures, from tactile sound design to field recordings of waves. It embodies Harle's pursuit of melancholic euphoria - a blend of megalophobic majesty and raw humanity - inspired by Andrei Tarkovsky's Stalker, existing Inchon the threshold between dreams and reality.InchSeeking Inchthe best melodies sung by the best voices,Inch Harle enlisted an exceptional cast of collaborators, including Caroline Polachek, Clairo, Julia Michaels, PinkPantheress, Oklou, and MNEK, alongside newer voices like kacha-even his own daughters. Cerulean balances dancefloor power with emotional resonance to brilliant effect. Harle's wide-ranging influences - from hedonistic rave to the haunting Dark Souls video game series, Philip Glass's Einstein on the Beach, and Renaissance composers John Dowland, Thomas Tallis, and William Byrd - underpin the album's dazzling, genre (and centuries)-spanning focus.Born in North London, Harle's early exposure to avant-garde concerts and chart pop shaped his singular musical lens. Emerging from the visionary PC Music collective with 2013's InchBroken Flowers,Inch he became one of pop's most adventurous producers, collaborating with Charli XCX, Carly Rae Jepsen,& co-executive producing Polachek's acclaimed Pang, his credits span Oklou, FKA twigs, Shygirl, and Dua Lipa's Radical Optimism, earning him a GRAMMY nomination for Desire, I Want to Turn Into You.Fusing rave maximalism, classical composition and emotional depth, Cerulean distills Harle's lifelong fascination wi
