Maribou State return with new single, Turnmills
By Andy Malt | Published on Thursday 3 May 2018
Maribou State have returned with their first new music since 2015. New single ‘Turnmills’ is named after the London club that closed ten years ago, and sees them team up with the Night Time Industries Association’s #SaveNightlife campaign.
“Turnmills was where we first experienced electronic music in a club setting”, says the duo’s Liam Ivory. “It’s a totally different and transformative listening experience and that communal spirit, atmosphere and feeling has inspired the way we’ve made music. Clubs are such important hubs for music discovery, especially of songs that you might have overlooked in a different setting. Partly through the feeling in the room and also through the memories attached to the records you hear”.
His bandmate Chris Davids continues: “We wrote ‘Turnmills’ the day after a Dama Dama label party at the East London club Shapes (shut down in 2016). Our studio is housed in the same building actually… Anyway the vibe of the night brought back memories of our formative clubbing experiences and that energy ended up being channelled straight back into the studio the next day”.
The duo will perform at one of their favourite clubs, Corsica Studios in London, on 17 May, donating proceeds from tickets to the #Savenightlife campaign. Tickets go on sale through Dice tomorrow.
