The Orielles unveil playful new tune "Space Samba (Disco Volador Theme)"
The Orielles are back with their first new song of the decade "Space Samba (Disco Volador Theme)", lifted from their forthcoming second album Disco Volador.
"Space Samba (Disco Volador Theme)" arrives after last year's lead single "Come Down On Jupiter".
Bassist and vocalist Esmé Dee Hand Halford says of the new song, ""Space Samba" is a song about corporeal experience, something which we feel we are collectively losing sight of in an age of mental existentialism! It is the Disco Volador theme because it relates to the phenomenological thread of the whole album, which tackles the many interpretations of the title throughout. In this instance, it refers to Disco Volador’s literal translation of ‘flying disc’ or ‘frisbee’, using this symbol to reflect both feelings of flight and motion and the notion of human connectivity."
In November 2019, The Orielles remixed a new PINS track titled "Ponytail".
Disco Volador will follow on from their 2018 debut LP Silver Dollar Moment.
Hand Halford adds of their new record, "Its literal interpretation from Spanish means flying disc but everyone experiences things differently. Disco Volador could be a frisbee, a UFO, an alien nightclub or how you feel when you fly; what happens to your body physically or that euphoric buzz from a great party. But it is an album of escape; if I went to space, I might not come back."
