Throughout the years Tempers’ Jasmine Golestaneh and Eddie Cooper have carved out their own niche within indie, electronica and synth-pop circles. Their sound is about exploring tonal and emotional tension as much as it is about actual tracks or singular moments. Adrenalizing and spellbinding landscapes layer mechanical and sensual impulses, as Golestaneh’s crystalline vocals weave fever dreams of yearning and alienation. The duo’s electronica/pop touchstone Services was released back in 2015 to critical acclaim resulting in the underground club hit “Strange Harvest”, extensive international touring and sold-out shows worldwide.

Today Dais Records is pleased to announce the essential album is finally getting a repress on vinyl and CD formats. The announcement comes with a gorgeous new acoustic version of Services’ single “Bright Over Me, which will be included on digital formats. FLOOD debuted the track alongside a playlist of songs that have inspired them from the Services days to now. Read more here and listen to the playlist hereTo pre-order go here.

Informed by both Golestaneh’s involvement in musical performance and visual art and Coopers’s electronic production resume, as well as their time in the States and abroad, Tempers operate as a multi-disciplined entity in the spirit and ethos of Factory Records. The two describe their creative process as a telepathic kinship they’ve developed since they started making music together: “We have these sort of unspoken criteria when we’re writing music. We never really need to explain what that is but we both know when it’s missing or when we’ve hit it.” 

Earlier this summer Tempers released their hypnotizing track “The Use of My Belonging,” which was recorded in their bedrooms across Manhattan during quarantine and the rise of the Black Lives Matter protests. “Watching inequalities intensify to unethical extremes, as systems of power swerve into nightmarish realms of greed, brutality and oppression inspired the song,” explain Golestaneh and Cooper. “The song is about the hope that love will prevail in an era of post-truth, that the return to love is somehow natural and inevitable.

“an insistent thump that's halfway between Factory and Wax Trax!” PITCHFORK

“Hell Hotline a slice of achingly melodic, drum-machine-driven guitar-pop that seemed the sum of its own subtly shaded paradoxes: downcast and buoyant, terse and expansive, icy and sentimental.” FADER

“…music so resolutely otherworldly; songs like “Strange Harvest” and “Hell Hotline” are heavy on atmosphere—dissonant guitars and murky beats bouyed aloft by Golestaneh’s crystalline vocals.”
