After a long long wait, I'm pleased to announce our second lp "Warehouse Dayz" is officially out now at all good retailers. As mastered by none other than John Davis (Bloc Party, Friendly Fires, Joy Division, Prodigy, MJ Cole). “Warehouse Dayz” is Bachelors of Science’s second album, and a represents a significant direction change for the duo. For their sophomore outing they have raised the bar as an electronic music act, dipping into a wealth of seemingly disparate influences – from Lemon Jelly, Portishead, LTJ Bukem, High Contrast, Daft Punk, Mylo and the Prodigy to Debussy, Frank Sinatra and Hunter S. Thompson - and combining these various styles to edge outwards of the genre they’re best known for. The result is a record that delights both on the well worn boards of a smoky club or the dimly lit hues of your living room.
From the electro influenced “Lost Inside”, via the cheeky reggae vibes of “Red Stripe”, the drum and bass ballad “Can’t Let Go”, and the devastating “RipSaw” to the Burial tinged “Bombay Sapphire”, the Lindstrom inflected space-disco sounds of “Match Point” and the epic ‘amen break’ centred “The Rush”, the Bachelors of Science consistently surprise with a diverse palette of sounds, ensuring things never get stale.
