We interviewed Alex from Rubblebucket and we talk briefly about the Electric Forest, how it went for them, and will they return to next year’s adventures in the forest.
We spoke about the electronic music scene and how dub step is changing the scene, and Alex explains how he can appreciate the dj scene more by being around it and thinking about incorporating more electronic with Rubblebucket’s music.
We get the story on how Rubblebucket became and what they’re in for this summer. Alex spoke to us during his time on the road heading to D.C for a show. We learn quickly that they are not just doing shows but they’re also playing tons of festivals as well.
Check out their new album that just came out, June 7th, Omega La La
via Sin Duda Records. The album was recorded at Plantain/DFA Studios and finds the band collaborating for the first time with legendary producer/mixerEric Broucek (LCD Soundsystem, Cut Copy, Hercules and Love Affair) for the Brooklyn eight piece’s most adventurous record yet.
In honor of the band’s new album, Rubblebucket has made “Silly Fathers” available for free download here. The band is also heading out on an extensive North American spring tour, including performances at the Joshua Tree Music Festival and Floyd Fest. See full tour dates below.
