Oh Wonder detail second record Ultralife and share new single
London-based pop twosome Oh Wonder have shared new track "Ultralife" and detailed their second album of the same name.
The self-produced effort was mostly recorded at Josephine Vander Gucht and Anthony West's Brockley studio, and follows their self-titled debut from 2015.
"Our studio is on a busy main road, on the corner of two bus routes," explains West. "Whenever we’d start recording, another bus would go by. We couldn’t do vocals before 10pm."
"But some buses do sneak in," adds Vadner Gucht. "The album opens with a bus, an ode to the fact that the entire album was compromised by London transport. There’s also a police siren from New York, where we had the same problem with traffic. We could have made our lives easier by going to a studio with soundproofing, but that isn’t us. Our lives are in these songs and it didn’t feel fair to leave the night buses out."
