All Fun And Games Until Everyone Goes Blind [CD] (ONLINE ORDER ONLY)

Springing from Southends (UK) buoyant music scene (Nothing But Thieves, Youth Club, David Woodcock) Usselman is the moniker for multi-instrumentalist Chris Usselman - who, has written, arranged and produced a debut album of glittering alt electro-pop with 'All Fun And Games Until Everyone Goes Blind' that has been compared stylistically to amongst others Metronomy, Sparks, MGMT, Arcade Fire. Ten futurist-tunes drawing from the synthesized gold mine of Giorgio Moroder, Sparks and Depeche Mode, with the millennial edge and depth of Rodion, Ulrich Schnauss and Tycho on tracks like 'Mountains' 'Wolf' and sure-fire festival belter 'The Valley'. Singles 'Tongue Tied' and 'With The Tides' received radio support from Steve Lamacq BBC 6 Music, both singles were the Producers Pick at BBC Introducing Essex, whilst international stations have also picked up on tracks to date including - Radio Alpa (France), Byte FM + Couch FM (Germany) as well as various US College Radio stations. Mixed in London and Oslo by Kev Feazey and Nick Terry - Usselman's 'All Fun And Games Until Everyone Goes Blind' could be the lost soundtrack to a sci-fi cult classic or a ready-made art-pop playlist - and is a welcome addition to the electronic unit of Blow Up Records (Baltic Fleet, Aspic Boulevard, Daiquiri Fantomas). 1 With The Tides 2 Wolf 3 Dry 4 New Man 5 Mountains 6 Little Late 7 Paraffin 8 Follow Me Up 9 Tongue Tied 10 The Valley
