The plan was to produce music that came from a place outside of their respective usual musical styles - a loose, open-ended process embarked upon for the pure joy of experimentation and collaboration rather than a specific end goal.\r\n\r\nThe collaboration came on the back of two hugely successful Friendly Fires albums – 2008’s debut Friendly Fires and 2011’s follow up Pala – and an acclaimed debut album from The Asphodells in 2013’s Ruled By Passion Destroyed By Lust, the latest in a long line of classic releases from Andrew Weatherall’s own Rotters Golf Club label.\r\n\r\nRecording took place between Weatherall’s Shoreditch studio, The Bunker, and Friendly Fires frontman Ed Macfarlane’s basement studio just a short stroll down the road in Farringdon, using a desk that once belonged to influential German producer Konrad ‘Conny’ Plank to mix the tracks.\r\n\r\nThe result is ‘Before Your Eyes’ and ‘Velo’ - two brand new tracks that take close to ten minutes each to reveal their full hypnotic glory. The tracks will be released as a AA-sided single on 12” and download and will be the inaugural release on Friendly Fires’ own Telophase label.\r\n\r\nhttp://www.recordstore.co.uk/recordstore/recordstore/Before-Your-Very-Eyes-Velo-Signed/37720000000\r\nhttp://www.piccadillyrecords.com/prod/FriendlyFiresTheAsphodells-BeforeYourEyesVelo-Telophase-95128.html\r\nhttp://www.roughtrade.com/albums/81322","thumbnail_url":"https://i1.sndcdn.com/artworks-000073505594-0bqaq5-t500x500.jpg","html":"<iframe width=\"100%\" height=\"400\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"no\" allow=\"autoplay; encrypted-media\" src=\"https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?visual=true&url=https%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F139537741&show_artwork=true\"></iframe>","author_name":"Friendly Fires","author_url":"https://soundcloud.com/friendly-fires"}
