Introducing: Dave Sitek & friends are Maximum Balloon
Dave Sitek of TV on the Radio’s new project Maximum Balloon will have appearances from Little Dragon, Theophilus London, David Byrne, Tunde Adebimpe, Kyp Malone, Karen O, Holly Miranda and Ambrosia Parsley (Kill Bill’s Shivaree – ‘Goodnight Moon’). The single ‘Tiger’ featuring Aku Orracu-Tetteh which is the soundtrack to this naughty NSFW Daisy Lowe video, which sort of makes it sound strip club friendly, gets a video next week. A track-by-track guide is here.
‘If You Return’ is the best track I’ve heard thus far and it features Little Dragon. This stream has annoying radio presenter ident tags on it by the way, so you’re not crazy if you hear some babbling.
