Copenhagen trio Farveblind announce debut album 'Micro Pleasures', due 15th May. Produced by Farveblind and mixed by Swedish engineer Gustav Brunn, the album features a cast of contributors and guest vocalists including Django Django, k.flay, Elliphant, USERS, Foreign Air and Emmeline.

With touchstones ranging from Battles and The Chemical Brothers to Underworld and Viagra Boys, Farveblind's hard-edged brand of electronic music collides breakbeats, acid-drenched techno, punk fury, and sweeping cinematic layers.

Their forthcoming debut album 'Micro Pleasures' pulls that punk volatility, industrial precision and widescreen electronic drama into the same gravitational field and is previewed today by new single 'Natural Behaviour', featuring London vocalist Emmeline.

Speaking about the track, Emmeline says: “When the boys sent me the rough draft of this instrumental it was already so driving and epic. I wanted to write something equally dark but with a momentum and force to it that would move the song into something broadly philosophical and/or existential. The phrase ‘Natural Behaviour’ came to the fore pretty quickly, and I started to think about what that actually means. How much are we a product of the music around us? Of the people? Of the availability of light? Then I started thinking about someone waiting for someone’s natural behaviour to shift — and how that can be a pretty futile task. Maybe the song exists in a club at the ends of the earth, where we’re all questioning why the grass grows upwards, why the bassline hits harder when the beat drops, why we punish the earth for what it gives us — and how some patterns are hard to break.”

The Danish trio have been quietly building toward this moment in recent years - with a host of EPs and singles already under their belts. The collaborators on 'Micro Pleasures' reflect relationships built over that time, choosing to work with people they’d connected with naturally through touring, festivals and shared scenes. Each contribution comes from a place of curiosity and trust, fitting into the album’s wider tone without changing its centre of gravity.

On the forthcoming album, Farveblind comment: "'Micro Pleasures' is an ode to the small glimpses of happiness you find in the otherwise oppressive mundanity of modern life. It explores how fleeting everyday joys can act as both coping mechanisms and subtle forms of resistance. The album is a collage of work with a lot of very exciting people. It allowed us to tap into genres and energies that wouldn't have been otherwise unavailable to us."

Farveblind’s debut album 'Micro Pleasures' is out 15th May pre save Here. New single 'Natural Behaviour' (feat. Emmeline) is out now. Farveblind join ROMES on tour across Europe in February.
