Bing & Ruth sign to 4AD for new record, share new single "Starwood Choker"

Bing & Ruth announce No Home Of The Mind, their debut album for new label 4AD, and share lead single "Starwood Choker".

Bing & Ruth were 11 musicians strong at one point but now they're a streamlined quintet - led, as ever, by composer David Moore.

"Starwood Choker" is a magnificent composition, recalling the vivid minimalism of pianists such as Nils Frahm or ambient composers like Ólafur Arnalds. The accompanying video is eerie and haunting - but there's beauty to be found in the silhouettes.

The LP is the New York collective's third studio album in total, and it will see Moore & Co. "taking so-called 'classical' music to new limits."

No Home Of The Mind is released 17 February via 4AD. Pre-order now.

Tracklist:

  1. Starwood Choker
  2. As Much as Possible
  3. Scrapes
  4. Chronchos
  5. The How of it Sped
  6. Is Drop
  7. Form Takes
  8. To All It
  9. Flat Line/Peak Color
  10. What Ash it Flow Up
