DUNGEONESSE DRIVE YOU CRAZY b/w PRIVATE PARTY
Drive You Crazy Dungeonesse is a collaboration between writer/producer Jon Ehrens (White Life, Art Private Party Department) and singer Jenn Wasner (Wye Oak, Flock of Dimes). Born of a mutual admiration for Top 40 and R&B and the mechanics of what makes a hit song, the duo and longtime friends began putting jams together remotely. Ehrens would send tracks from LA to Wasner on tour, and they'd bounce ideas back and forth. Part party machine programming, and part homage to the great tradition of R&B vocals, the songs of Dungeonesse retain an experimental and playful inner beauty while leading the charge to a dance floor of abundantly inclusive and carefree spirits.
Says Wasner, "Something that Jon and I talk about a lot is the idea of reclaiming pop music; CATALOG #: SC274 placing it squarely in the hands of, I dunno, say a couple of regular nerds from Baltimore." RELEASE DATE : NOVEMBER 13, 2012 FORMAT: 12”/DIGITAL Ehrens adds, "I think we both knew that even if we intended to make something that was a BOX LOT: 50 straight ahead, radio-ready hit, it would come out sounding a little different because of both of GENRE: INDIE POP/ELECTRONIC our musical backgrounds in which the music we made did not have this intention." KEY MARKETS: BALTIMORE, NEW YORK, BROOKLYN, WASHINGTON DC, The charming strength of Dungeonesse rests in the dichotomy formed by of a bold re- PHILADELPHIA, CHICAGO, LA, ATLANTA, introduction of the beautiful imperfections of the human voice into a landscape of what is an SEATTLE, SAN FRANCISCO increasingly mechanized process of music making. The fun resides in the listen.
