Daniel Ander­son is no stranger to churn­ing out dense, 8-bit tinged, genre-splitting records, like it’s no big deal. After 2 albums w/ Belling­ham born Idiot Pilot, sev­eral EP’s and last years full length Glow­bug debut, (not to men­tion a full time gui­tar spot in Hyro Da Hero which fea­tures mem­bers of Seat­tles own Blood Broth­ers). The dude is a music mak­ing machine. Today after a trail of teasers, we unveil the first sin­gle from Glowbug’s lat­est LP offer­ing, Suit Of Swords (out on band­camp tonight at mid­night). The track, “Heat­wave” trades pop melodies with lyri­cal intro­spec­tion “I used to run with the idiots/cut my teeth in one resent­ful tribe” glu­ing itself together on 8-bit bounce like your nin­tendo after your friend acci­den­tally kicked the thing over for the 10,000th time. Infec­tiously fun and made for a sum­mer day, the track and album come to us just shy of Seat­tles sun streak, but I’ll tip you off that there’s some trade­mark dan in here made for the rainy ones too. Enjoy Heat­wave below and look for the album to go live here at mid­night.
A word from Dan:

Hello! It’s Glowbug.

I am writ­ing to inform you that our sopho­more LP “Suit of Swords” is out at Mid­night on Tues­day, May 22nd as a dig­i­tal down­load. Even more excit­ing, it is com­pletely free with a sug­gested dona­tion (prefer­ably the cost of an album, around 10$) to the Can­cer Research Fund or the Cure Search for Chil­drens Can­cer. With or with­out a dona­tion, it’s just a few clicks away and I would love for you to check it out.

Glow­bug is the ambient/dance/pop project of Daniel Ander­son (Ex-Idiot Pilot, cur­rent gui­tarist for Hyro Da Hero), hail­ing from the sunny coast of Los Ange­les, Cal­i­for­nia. “Suit of Swords” is a 14 track album writ­ten, pre­formed and recorded entirely by Anderson.
