TAME IMPALA – LET IT HAPPEN

At dawn, with little fanfare, psychedelic rock wonders Tame Impala revealed a brand new, eight-minute long track entitled “Let It Happen”.

Representatives for the band have stressed that this new swirling synth-led adventure is not the first single from the band’s forthcoming album, the follow-up to 2012’s Lonerism, but instead a track just for fans. There’s evidently plenty of them as well, with the initial release causing the band’s website to crash. Everything is back online now and “Let It Happen” is being offered as a free download in exchange for your email address. You can also stream it below.

The nearly 8-minute song has heavier lean towards the electronic compared to their previous stuff as the group’s keyboardist Jay Watson told Faster Louder in an interview, building on the band’s signature psych-rock sound.

There’s still no word on an official release date for the new record, but the release of this new single, which is their first new music in three years since 2012’s Lonerism, gives us reason to be excited and indicates that the time may be drawing close.

Marco Mestichella

From the sunny climbs of Rome – Marco Mestichella is here in London and ready to conquer the world. 

With a smorgasbord of sounds at his disposal – his previous releases are a walk through a myriad of musical influences. 

With a style equally influenced by Massive Attack, Isaac Hayes and Madonna he’ll keep you guessing. Marco represents a new vanguard of art pop artists who can create vicious soundscapes and soft ditties all from the comfort of their front room – allowing for a prolific back catalogue. 

Two of our faves are Should Have Stayed at Home and Treason – both from his debut EP The Day I Killed My Ego. 

There are rumours that there is another EP on its way in the not too distant future…..keep your ears open for Mr. Mestichella. 

Marco is next playing at the O2 Academy Islington 19/03
