French electronic duo Justice made up of Xavier de Rosnay and Gaspard Augé, have shared two new songs: “One Night/All Night,” featuring Tame Impala and “Generator“.
Both track feature on their upcoming album ‘Hyperdrama‘, due to be released on April 26th through Because Music/ Ed Banger. Pre-order your copy here.
Speaking about it, Justice said: “We wanted this track to sound as if a dark/techno iteration of Justice had found a sample of a disco iteration of Kevin Parker. Kevin has a sense of melody that’s fascinating in the sense that he manages to write melodies that feel both simple and natural, but very peculiar at the same time. This song oscillates between pure electronic music and pure disco but you never really get the two at the same time. This very idea of switching instantly from a genre to another within a song runs through the whole record, and is maybe showcased the clearest in ‘One Night/All Night.’
Of “Generator” they added: “To us, this one sounds like ‘Getaway’ by the Salsoul Orchestra, but with gabber and classic ’90s hardcore techno sounds. Disco/funk and electronic music at large have always been core elements of the music we make as Justice. In Hyperdrama, we make them coexist, but not in a peaceful way. We like this idea of making them fight a bit for attention.”
