New Album Float to be Released October 6
15 September 2017 (Toronto, ON) - Today Slow Magic reveals “Drum”, the latest single from his upcoming album, Float, out October 6 via Downtown/Interscope/Universal Music Canada, the country’s leading company.
"I spent a week in Stockholm last summer recording the drums for the whole album,” Slow Magic explains. “I always play drums live along with the songs but Float is my first time recording live drums directly. I decided to keep it simple, just two toms and one cymbal. I wanted to capture the simplicity and limitation of using only a couple of drums.”
“After recording the drums, the record really came together and started sounding complete,” he continues. “A few months later at home I was listening back to the drum mixes and started building something completely new with them. That's how ‘Drum' was created.”
“Drum” follows previously released singles, “Mind” (feat. Kate Boy) and “Light” (feat. Tropics), both of which are sampled on “Drum”, along with every other song from Float. “I wanted to make a song that reminded people of their animal instinct.”
Slow Magic is currently touring the world, including three Canadian dates, in support of Float headlining his biggest rooms yet. “I'm planning a lot of new things that I haven't done before. There will be a completely revamped live show with a ton of new music. I'm hoping people that have been to my show and people that never have will all feel like they are experiencing something they never have imagined.”
