2/02SECOND SINGLE FROM “DUCK”!
WELCOME TO THE ARISTOCLUB: Check out the second video single from our upcoming album DUCK. This one’s called “Aristoclub”, and it’s our tongue-in-cheek pastiche of an ultra-mainstream 1990s dance song. Bryan wrote it to be loosely inspired by C & C Music Factory, Marky Mark & The Funky Bunch, and Technotronic – unlikely source material for Aristocrats-style guitar-driven instrumental rock/fusion, to be sure! But Guthrie did some amazing guitar sequencing on this, and Marco put his own spin on some classic dance beats. It hopefully goes to show we can throw just about anything in the blender and have it come out the other side as something fun and wild.
In keeping with the concept album’s narrative, the Aristoclub is also one of the first places our Duck protagonist lands upon arriving in the big city, thousands of miles from his Antarctic island home. It’s loud and crazy in there, and he just wants to have a good time after such an arduous journey – but is he being followed?
DUCK is available for pre-sale (link in first comment) now on regular CD, DUCK Deluxe (CD + bonus USB video and special content), double vinyl, and hi-res digital download (Bandcamp). Album drops February 16. Hope you enjoy the new tune!
Cheers to all, The Aristocrats
