Marvel in the beauty of electronic duo Delmer Darion's new single "Television"

Fives years in the making, the collaboration between producers Oliver Jack and Tom Lenton, Delmer Darion, will release their debut album Morning Pageants and with "Television" they share the final teaser before the record drops in full. Having impressed with their unique experimental sound on tracks like "Wildering" and "Narrowing", their latest release offers more promise that the album will be nothing short of a masterpiece.

The album is a ten-track account of the death of the devil and with "Television" they look at the role of media in their imagineering. "Back in the '80s, some Fundamentalist Christians like Pastor Gary Greenwald were preaching how cartoons like He-Man and the Masters of the Universe were turning children to Satan and the occult," they explain.

"That gave us this wonderful image of Satan curled up and imprisoned in the electron guns of old cathode ray tubes. We just thought, how far he’s fallen!" They continue to say "back in his day, pretty much everyone feared Satan’s ability to walk, talk, convey, possess, and just generally affect the physical world. It felt like the perfect symbol for the death of Satan in the collective consciousness."

A break from the duo's more industrial experimentation, "Television" takes its time to grow and expand, but as doing so it becomes increasingly unstable and by the end of the track the jittering drums and self-sampled sounds implode. Held together by the voice of alternative folk singer/songwriter Genevieve Dawson's guest vocals, she repeats a line from Wallace Stephen's poem The Auroras of Autumn, which fits perfectly into the world of occulist imagery which Jack and Lenton are creating through their first Delmer Darion project.
