Description

Long awaited debut album from Rostam Batmanglij. Chances are you know Rostam s music even if the name sounds unfamiliar. The first generation Iranian-American producer is the musical leader behind Vampire Weekend, as well as a behind-the-scenes secret weapon breaking down borders and blurring genres for the likes of Frank Ocean, Solange, Charli XCX, and others. On Half-Light, Rostam goes solo for the first time in his 10+ years of producing music. Though we ve become accustomed to his unique brand of indie pop through other projects, this will also be the first time Rostam s voice takes center stage as well. It s a striking, yet welcome difference, that perfectly matches the man slush and intimate production. Includes Bike Dream, Wood, EOS, Sumer, Hold You, with Angel Deradoorian, Half-Light with Kelly Zutrau, and more. 19 tracks in all on double vinyl with fold-out poster insert.
