DUNGEONESSE DUNGEONESSE Shucks Dungeonesse , the pop project of Jenn Wasner ( Wye Oak , Flock of Dimes ) and Jon Ehrens Drive You Crazy (White Life ), will release its self-titled debut album May 14, 2013 on Secretly Canadian. Show You Private Party "Shucks," which premiered with Pitchfork, is an apt lead-off for the album, a funk-influenced Nightlight track full of bass that Wasner's voice surfs like a wave. The band's first single and video (also This Could Be Home (Featuring TT released as a standalone 12"), "Drive You Crazy," premiered with The FADER. On it, Wasner's The Artist) Ciara-like breathy coo comes to the fore over Ehrens' gigantic production–Top 40 with a Wake Me Up connoisseur's touch. Wasner & Ehrens know we want to party and the songs on Dungeonesse Cadillac (Featuring DDm) are the perfect soundtrack: bangers ("Cadillac," "Drive You Crazy"), slow jams ("Nightlight," Anywhere You Are "Wake Me Up"), synthy house ("Private Party"), and carefully crafted beats that make you Soon wanna. Born of a mutual admiration for Top 40 and R&B and the mechanics of what makes a hit song, the Baltimore natives and longtime friends Wasner & Ehrens began putting jams together remotely. Ehrens would send tracks from LA to Wasner on tour, and they'd bounce ideas back CATALOG #: SC276 and forth. The charming strength of the resulting Dungeonesse rests in the dichotomy formed RELEASE DATE : MAY 14, 2013 by of a bold re-introduction of the beautiful imperfections of the human voice into a landscape FORMAT: CD/LP/DIGITAL of what is an increasingly mechanized process of music making.
