D:Ream Returns With First New Material In 14 Years, "Meet Me At Midnight"

New York, NY (Top40 Charts) 'You do your thing and make a record for all the clubbers in the early 90s to dance to, and the next thing everyone's hanging out of windows singing it during a crisis. I was in tears.' Pete Cunnah, frontman of legendary dance group D:Ream, is talking about 'Things Can Only Get Better'.

It became a song of the people - again! - during this last year when it was blasted through the streets of Nottingham, a booming accompaniment to the wild claps for our NHS workers during the pandemic. This song really does have a habit of taking the world by storm during times of national seismic shifts. But it was prescient for the band who, this year, release their first material in well over a decade.

Open Hearts, Open Minds is the album, slated for the lazy, hazy, late nights and lie-ins of summer, while its banging first single, 'Meet Me At Midnight', dropped on 30th April, and it's everything you hope a D:Ream tune will be; a slick piece of pure house joy, with dancefloor beats giving way to telltale synths and, of course, Pete's distinctive vocals over lyrics you can really get behind. It's a stellar return for the D:Ream boys, and it feels like the timing has never been better.
