Artist:	PEAKING LIGHTS
Title:	936 Remixes
Label:	100% SILK
Format:	12"
Price:	$14.00
Catalog #:	SILK 014EP

"Ponies from the SILK stable turn 936 dub-a-dub lullaby groovers into full-on synth-sex, acid-bubble, twinkle-starshine dance ditties on this remix redux. Beat it with the chic vocal pitch n' bounce and metallic/mechanic swing of Ital's take on 'Marshmellow Yellow.' Bring it on baroque with Xander Harris' Sly and Dario giallo-reggae revision of 'Birds of Paradise.' Innergaze hi-five the minimal wave of 'All The Sun That Shines,' transforming the original into a syncopated psych-out dark-disco-dose FX fest. And Cuticle's got the bleary bleep-bloop best of sweet serenade 'Tiger Eyes' with Casio keyed-up flourishes, hi-hat space jams, and damp ramp-up breakdowns. Even beater than the real thing; let the Domino fall for 936-gone-nightlife. "

Title:	Lucifer
Label:	MEXICAN SUMMER
Format:	LP
Price:	$18.00
Catalog #:	MEX 114LP

Limited second edition now on white vinyl. "The golden duo of Aaron Coyes and Indra Dunis continue to crystallize their mesmerizing sound and find new dimensions within. Lucifer also comes at a time of great transition for this married couple and it reflects the possibilities that they have found during this new life era, especially with the birth of their son, Mikko, a guiding light muse for the album. Recorded in Brooklyn at Gary's Electric studio over the course of a month, Peaking Lights consider Lucifer a nocturnal version of their sound. It's slinkier and full of grooves. 'To us this record is about play and playfulness, unconditional love, rhythms and pulses, creation and vibration,' says Coyes. Lucifer is also Peaking Lights' most ambitious release to date in terms of its approach and scope. Through their studio experiments, the duo has managed to link their musical loves - dub, krautrock, analog electronic dance music, sound collages, pop music - all while maintaining cohesive songs. Lucifer was self-produced and engineered by Al Carlson (Yeasayer, Ford & Lopatin, 0PN)." Includes download code.

Title:	936
Label:	NOT NOT FUN
Format:	CD
Price:	$12.00
Catalog #:	NNF 217CD

2012 repress. "Sometimes it feels so simple: two of our favorite people in one of our favorite bands release one of our favorite records of all time. 2009's Imaginary Falcons was its own genius slushpile of tape-hissy drift-dub haze anthems, no question, but 936 takes every facet of the Peaking Lights mighty diamond and shines it to fluorescent perfection. The songwriting is insane; 'All The Sun That Shines,' 'Amazing & Wonderful,' 'Tiger Eyes (Laid Back),' etc, all seep into yr mindstream and float there like melodic gold dust. Indra Dunis' silky soul-jazz keys and tranced vocals have never sounded so exquisite, and Aaron Coyes busts out the best bass/drum loops and sneaky dub guitar of his musical lifetime. Recorded by Luke Tweedy at Flat Black Studios in Iowa City (where both the NNF Wet Hair LPs were tracked) and mastered in Berlin, 936 retains the cool crate-digger grit of their earlier highlights, but within a much more vivid spectrum of sound. Could not be more jazzed and honored to unveil this total groove-wave classic. CD version includes two bonus tracks from the same recording sessions not chosen for inclusion on the LP. CD digipaks with vintage art by the band, plus some stills from their 'All The Sun That Shines' video. Edition of 500."
