Prolific electronic music producer Shigeto has confirmed that he will release his third full length on Ghostly on August 19th. The album is called No Better Time Than Now, and is heavily influenced by the manic time Shigeto has had as his star has risen over in the past couple of years.
Speaking about it, Shigeto says “2012 was a powerful year for me. I released my second LP; I played nearly 180 shows in 360 days; I made the move back home from Brooklyn, NY to Detroit, MI; a six-year relationship of mine came to an end and I made it 30 years on the planet.”
We already have two songs for you to listen to from No Better Time Than Now; the beautiful airy “Detroit Part 1” and the more typically rhythmically-driven 6-minute stomper “Ringleader.” The two tracks give us a sense of just two of the many sides that Shigeto is promising to present on this album. Take a listen to both below and check out the track list and album art beneath.
