Pantha Du Prince announces his first album in six years, shares "The Winter Hymn (ft. Queens)"
Germany's Pantha Du Prince has announced The Triad, his first "proper" record since 2010's Black Noise.
Pantha Du Prince (aka Hendrik Weber) released Elements Of Light, a collaboration with The Bell Laboratory, in 2013.
As well as the news of a new record, Weber's released "The Winter Hymn (ft. Queens)", the album's lead single. It's out today as a 12", featurgin B-side “Post Human Palisades (feat. Bendik & Kassian)” and an extended mix of the album track “Dream Yourself Awake.”
Speaking about The Triad, Weber says: “Black Noise was very much about me being alone in a small room in Berlin and composing. The Triad opens the structure to more human ways of interacting, not digitized ways of interacting. It's not about Facebook; it's about meeting up and jamming. I wanted to cut through the digital dust that surrounds us.”
The Triad is out 20 May via Rough Trade.
