"For 'These Seas,' Broder enlisted the talents of serpentwithfeet and Kazu Makino of Blonde Redhead to spin the surging instrumental into an urgent anthem for dreamers, weaving an interpolation of Eurythmics' 'Sweet Dreams (Are Made Of This)' together with hiccuping samples, synthetic squelches and propulsive percussion"
FACT Magazine

"Although slower-burning, the instrumental [on 'Sleeping Car Porters'] shares the sense of unease featured across that project, with both rappers feeling equally in their zone across its eerie five-minute runtime"
FLOOD Magazine

"On 'Sleeping Car Porters,' Broder puts together a dank, dread-soaked track, and billy woods and Moor Mother lock into the mood."
Stereogum

"['Herbert'] works both as mood music as well as a forward-thinking banger"

Renowned Minneapolis producer and multi-genre musician Andrew Broder — whose recent production credits include Joe Rainey, Lambchop, Dua Saleh, Armand Hammer and more, in addition to his solo work as Fog — shares his brand new solo LP entitled The Show Original Soundtrack on February 3 (via Lex Records).  

In anticipation of the upcoming record release, today, Broder shares a stunning music video for the LP's newest single, "These Seas," choreographed, directed, and created by Holly Blakey (Florence & The Machine, MØ, Vivienne Westwood, Gucci). The track itself (out on DSPs this Friday) features Broder's collaborations with serpentwithfeet and Blonde Redhead's Kazu Makino.

Speaking on the track, Broder wrote:

"It was a cool opportunity and challenge to make a track around Alan Moore’s lyrics, to hit his reference points and underlying thematic narrative. Serpent and Kazu both have such unique and different approaches to singing, so transportive and perfect for a song about living and dying in dreamworld. This is a track for the scary and exciting club in one’s dreams."

The Show Original Soundtrack is a collection of pulsing, darkly lush, and banging tracks, which came to be following Broder’s first foray into the world of indie film via his collaboration with legendary writer Alan Moore (WatchmenJerusalem) on Moore's original screenplay of the same name (Broder also previously scored Moore's semi-biographical audio-novella, Unearthing). Following the release of The Show, Broder decided to remix and re-structure the film’s original score into pieces that had their own identity as a standalone project, pulling in some amazing guests, while still retaining the spirit and mood of Moore’s singular worldview. 

As a result of Broder's vision, The Show Original Soundtrack features collaborations with serpentwithfeetMoor Mother, Kazu Makino from Blonde Redhead, and billy woods (Armand Hammer). Additionally, the tracklisting includes the critically acclaimed single "Bloodrush," a track on which Andrew collaborated with Denzel CurryDua Saleh, and Haleek Maul, and which featured in the first look trailer for Moore's film. 

The design for the album is by Eric Carlson Timothy who has previously worked with Boys Noize, Leon Vynehall, and Bon Iver.

Speaking on the holistic record, Broder wrote:

"Alan Moore is such an inspiring writer, thinker and social critic - uncompromising in his artistic vision. I wanted this record to pay tribute to those qualities and step out of my own character a bit, work with some new friends and make something dark and mysterious but also confidently physical, with a lot of momentum. I am moving into more focused exploration of electronic music now, away from my time as a songwriter. I want to approach music with little adherence to genre, and a universal outlook, dwelling less on the self and more about painting with sound. Like Moore, trying to find some threads to weave together the cosmic, psychedelic realm with the more human and vulnerable melodic sense, something that still aches."

Stay tuned for the full LP from Andrew Broder, coming soon.
