New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ Girlie Action Media & Marketing) Masters of modernist pop Architecture in Helsinki release their new album Moment Bends today on V2/Cooperative Music USA/Downtown Records. To celebrate the occasion the band is sharing a remix of their single "Contact High" by Brooklyn duo Javelin. In large parts, Moment Bends is in dialogue with the dance floor, without being a slave to any particular rhythm. Like the best pop albums it bubbles with an immediacy while revealing new layers after repeated listens. It also showcases the band's most concise and sophisticated songwriting yet. Recorded over a two year period in the their studio space, Buckingham Palace, songwriter Cameron Bird says: "Moment Bends was all about being at one with our ideas, obsessed with popular music and falling in love with our hometown. We wanted to build a record to get lost in. A record that always feels exactly what you are feeling". Click HERE to stream/download this lush, shimmering take on the song. Click HERE to watch the video for the original version of "Contact High," which Paste Magazine calls "summer's first mixtape must" and Prefix Mag calls "absurdly catchy."
