Laneous shares new single 'Flawless'

 

"It's incredibly exciting, and the type of track that really shows why Laneous has become so widely celebrated" - Pilerats


Following on from first single Elsewhere, which gathered support from the likes of BBC 1Xtra, BBC 6 Music, Jazz FM, Worldwide FM, and many more, Laneous unveils ‘Flawless’, the second single taken from his Record Store Day exclusive dounble A-side 7” - ‘Elsewhere/Flawless’.
 
‘Flawless’ is an on-the-fly idea, born in the brain of Laneous and brought to life in the studio with Melbourne’s Grammy-nominated engineer-extraordinaire, Nick Herrera (Hiatus Kaiyote, 30/70, Nai Palm). Co-producing the track with Laneous, they took a similar approach to that of their Sunny Side Up (Brownswood Recordings 2019) contribution, Nice To See You’.  A process Laneous is fond of, he brought renowned Australian drummer Alon Ilsar in to lay down the backbone of the track, with intention to build on that and see where their two studio days took them. A process not for the faint hearted, Herrera often took the lead, drawing the ideas out of Laneous and capturing the magic that ensued.
 
‘Flawless’, a club banger in its purest form, is driven by a pounding 808 kick with hints of The Neptunes-era Kelis and an Amp Fiddler-esque influence bubbling beneath the surface. Laneous’ ability to switch between genres and styles so fluidly and naturally is on full display here, providing a shiny glimpse into the brain of one of Australia's most versatile musicians.
