Hear Alex Banks’ debut single ahead of LP release next month @alexbanksmusic @MonkeytownRec

A city-wide light-fest of a video illuminating a pulsingly emotive trip of a track

All you could do is the debut single from Monkeytown’s latest signing Alex Banks. The video, directed by Thomas Brown, examines modern life’s dependence on electricity over natural light. It reflects the picked acoustic and pulsating machine rhythms of Alex’s music, made all the more emotive and human by the vocals of Alex’s Brighton associate Elizabeth Bernholz of Gazelle Twin.

Exploring similar territory to his eclectic Monkeytown label bosses Modeselektor, Alex Banks fuses techno crunch with the electro-indie songwriting suss of groups such as Animal Collective.

His debut long player ‘Illuminate’, is released on June 2nd.
