New York-based indie rockers The Rapture return with new single ‘Sail Away’, taken from their acclaimed third album ‘In the Grace of Your Love’ which is out on December 12th through DFA Records.
The single follows on from dancefloor smash ‘How Deep Is Your Love?’ and will be released as a special remix EP featuring new mixes courtesy of Aeroplane, Cosmic Kids & Cut Copy. Described by The Times as ‘euphoric widescreen pop’, ‘Sail Away’ has quickly become a live favourite amongst fans and is now a staple piece in their sets.
The band is also sharing the video for ‘Sail Away,’ which is directed by Kris Moyes. The video follows the band on a fantasy-ride through the streets of Brooklyn, with Luke Jenner sailing the streets on a silver Mylar pillow – definitely odd, so you’ll just have to see for yourself. The video is embedded below.
The Rapture have just completed a full UK & European tour - which including two sold out London shows, the first at the legendary 100 club to celebrate DFA’s 10th Anniversary and the second an absolutely packed show at KOKO.
Producers, this is for you - The Rapture is hosting a remix contest for ‘How Deep Is Your Love?’ through Soundcloud. The contest will run until the beginning of December, when Rapture and DFA Records will determine the winner. If you fancy a go at remixing the track, go to the DFA Record site to get your hands on the stems.
