Dan Deacon: 'Learning To Relax,' Live On Soundcheck

Hear the entire session and interview: http://soundcheck.wnyc.org/story/dan-... Since his 2007 breakthrough album, Spiderman Of The Rings, Dan Deacon has assumed numerous roles. He’s a staple of Baltimore's Wham City art collective -- and a classically-trained composer and film scorer. On stage, he’s a mad scientist tinkering with colorful electronics -- and a ringleader encouraging his wild fans in absurdist dance-offs. Likewise, his music delivers both exquisite bliss and full-on beat-heavy cacophony. But no matter the setting, Deacon's unfettered sense of humor and his masterful ear for sonic textures unify his various music sides in endlessly exciting ways. Now, after several records written for larger ensembles, Deacon has gone solo once again with his latest, Gliss Riffer. In some ways, it's a return to what he’s best known for: exuberant and densely-stuffed electronic dance music. And while singing has always played some part Deacon's songs, Gliss Riffer showcases his voice more fully. You can hear that immediately in the lead single, "Feel The Lightning," and in "Learning To Relax" -- where Deacon changes the pitch or timbre of his voice to sometimes sound female -- like a duet with himself. It's a big pop-infused sound that will easily get fans flailing with awkward abandon on the dance floor. Watch Dan Deacon perform "Learning to Relax" in the Soundcheck studio.
