Cork band The Karman Line dropped an EP last year featuring upbeat electro and ambient electronic sounds. This new one popped up on Soundcloud ‘Hangman’ leans towards the latter, more of a Nathan Fake vibe with twinkling melodies than a “partay partay” thing. The track features on the Lightbox Compilation CD which will be sent to the funders of the Lightbox tour over the next fortnight. The album also feature tracks from Monto, Simon Bird, Reid, Bantum, Sert One, Adultrock, Tenaka. Ickis Morilo, Lorem Ipsum and Lemonada.
