Buke and Gase and So Percussion announce collaborative album with lead single "Diazepam"

03 December 2020, 10:03 | Written by Cerys Kenneally

Buke and Gase have announced a collaborative album with So Percussion titled A Record of..., and have unveiled "Diazepam" as the lead single.

"Diazepam" is Buke and Gase's first outing since their June Bandcamp release a thing, and marks the first collaboration to be released with So Percussion.

Buke and Gase's Arone Dyer says of the new single, ""Diazepam" is a deep dive into my psyche and you’ll find this cycling - a reminder not to look to others to keep my sanity or pose, and that sometimes being chemically altered is the only welcome thing that will break the spell of obsessive self-doubt. It can be read as a response to this very stressful year (or four), or a reminder to hug yourself, which has always been a contrivation to me. "Hug myself?" ...Yeah. The way you’d hug the person or animal or item you feel most protected by, and the most protection for. It can be a gentle, loving embrace to the ears and nothing more."

The collaborative album was written between both groups in a 300-year-old house in Hudson, New York. Both groups headed to a studio in rural Vermont to record the album.

A Record of... will follow Buke and Gase's 2019 LP Scholars.

Tracklist:

  1. Diazepam
  2. Hold It In
  3. Wake For Yourself
  4. 3rd Place
  5. Ancient Tool Gadget
  6. Spinach
  7. This Threat
  8. Over The Hill
  9. Get Down
  10. Sleepwalk
"Diazepam" is out now. Buke and Gase and So Percussion's A Record of... collaborative album will land via Brassland on 29 January 2021, and is available to pre-order now.
