It&#8217;ll be released on September 1<sup>st<\/sup>, 2017 via Ninja Tune.<\/p>\n<p>With the announcement, they share lead single (and album closer) \u0093<em>Aura;<\/em>\u0094 a complex and propulsive club track that channels their love for all things synth related.

Founded in 2008, its runaway success (it now sees over 100,000 visitors a month) spawned a record label of the same name, a club night, and took the duo out of the UK and embedded them on the international stage via highly sought after DJ sets that reflected the eclecticism celebrated on their blog &#8211; an impeccably curated blend of upfront tracks and exclusive edits mixed with deep-dug house and disco cuts (rediscovered, dusted off and given a new lease of life). Accordingly, they are venerated as trusted and esteemed curators in electronic music today.<\/p>\n<p>Cutting their production teeth with releases on Throne Of Blood, Traveller Records, Mystery Meat and Love Fever, Will Saul then snapped up the duo for a string of releases on his Aus Music imprint, including the now certified classic \u0093Just EP\u0094 bearing the dazzling and ubiquitous title track that became the undisputed club track of 2015 and earned Bicep both Mixmag and DJ Mag\u0092s \u0091Track of the Year\u0092. The duo have also collaborated with another trailblazing UK duo Simian Mobile Disco and remixed for the likes of Disclosure, Blood Orange and 808 State.<\/p>\n<p>The formidable DJs (#8 in Resident Advisor\u0092s 2016 poll) have toured the world over, curating and selling out a long list of Feel My Bicep parties including Manchester Warehouse Project, a 12-week residency at XOYO and their annual Italo Disco parties.<\/p>\n<p>In 2016, Andy and Matt built and tested a roof-raising live show &#8211; a powerful counterpoint to their much loved DJ sets that not only highlights the breadth and depth of the Bicep discography, brings to the fore both their skillful production and formidable engineering chops, but again reinforces their genius curatorial flair. Earlier this year, they took Coachella and Primavera festivals by storm and sold out their recent London show at Village Underground in 3 minutes flat. Following the album\u0092s release, they\u0092&#8217;ll embark on an extensive live headline world tour including a stop at Electric Brixton in London.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bicep Live Tour<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>06\/23 &#8211; GLASTONBURY FESTIVAL &#8211; PILTON &#8211; UK<\/p>\n<p>06\/28 &#8211; ROSKILDE FESTIVAL &#8211; ROSKILDE &#8211; DK<\/p>\n<p>07\/11 &#8211; MOSAIC &#8211; IBIZA &#8211; ES<\/p>\n<p>07\/15 &#8211; MELT!

Matt and Andy have pulled off the rarest of feats, to make a singularly unique electronic record founded on the blueprint of classic house, techno, electro and Italo disco, but flipped and morphed into a fresh design bearing the unique Bicep sonic signature. It\u0092s a perfectly succinct album: loose, raw and energetic enough for the dancefloor, yet refined, artfully composed and contemplative enough for home listening.<\/p>\n<p>Their spirited, daring approach brings them into the Ninja Tune fold. \u0093&#8221;For us it\u0092s important to be part of a label that looks broadly at music,&#8221;\u0094 Matt says. &#8220;\u0093We felt no restrictions at Ninja to be pigeonholed,\u0094&#8221; continues Andy. Displaying a theme of technical experimentalism and a deft melodic touch which runs throughout the entire record, it\u0092s this openness and no-rules approach to music making which has allowed Bicep to establish a unique position all their own on an increasingly crowded global dance stage.<\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-25923\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/StXpK1n.jpg?resize=358%2C358\" alt=\"Bicep cover\" width=\"358\" height=\"358\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/StXpK1n.jpg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/StXpK1n.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/StXpK1n.jpg?resize=768%2C768&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/StXpK1n.jpg?resize=1024%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/StXpK1n.jpg?resize=144%2C144&amp;ssl=1 144w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/StXpK1n.jpg?resize=624%2C624&amp;ssl=1 624w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/StXpK1n.jpg?resize=176%2C176&amp;ssl=1 176w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/StXpK1n.jpg?resize=60%2C60&amp;ssl=1 60w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/StXpK1n.jpg?w=2000 2000w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/cultureaddicts.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/StXpK1n.jpg?w=3000 3000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 358px) 100vw, 358px\" \/><strong>&#8216;Bicep&#8217;
