Black Sun

Get your ears ready, electro-pop magicians Gold Fields will release their highly-anticipated debut album Black Sun this month.  Black Sun was a multinational effort that began in the summer of 2011, when the band headed to Los Angeles to spend six weeks working with producer Mickey Petralia (Ladytron, Peaches) and then retreated to a remote Australian farm manor to continue writing songs.  They later recorded with Scott Horscroft (The Presets, Sleepy Jackson, Silverchair) as co-producer/engineer. However, taking their new knowledge from working with these two, Gold Fields decided to re-record and produce the whole album themselves in Mark’s parents garage in Ballarat. Fresh off the back of a U.S. tour with Canadian glam-pop artist Diamond Ringthe quintet is undoubtedly on the up and up.

Track Spotlight:” Dark Again” uses polychromatic percussion, interwoven vocals, and thematic juxtaposition of light and shadow which makes it not to miss.
