Feel-good melodies, irresistibly bouncy beats and a raw, soulful energy that just keeps giving. Welcome to the exciting new world of Freedust and their latest experimental pop masterpiece “My New Sunglasses''. The eleven track masterpiece takes us on a fun thrill ride through the world of swing, pop, jazz, electronica and beyond. The sound on the album takes a distinctly vintage feel and melds it with a fresh modern flair. The result is something inviting and accessible but at the same time boundary-pushing and timeless.

The record opens up with the title track “My New Sunglasses”, a feel-good floor--filler simply brimming with positive energy. The vocals are often distinctly soulful, especially when Sheila Weaver jumps on the record. Stand-out tracks like “I Do What I Like'' do much more than just sound good. They tell a story. A theme that runs through the whole album with every track telling its own tale. The song “Jump Up and Down” was previously featured on one of their EP’s and became famous after being used in TV commercials and a video game soundtrack. It features on the album in a deluxe version with a new mix and arrangement that includes live strings. From the fun feel of tracks like “Stick Together” to the luscious guitar licks of songs like “Light Your Day” and the infectious rhythms of standout tracks like “Free” — here’s one album you’ll have on repeat for years to come.

The dynamic duo was formed in Milan just ten years ago. They saw a lot of success with their first releases which were featured on TV commercials and even video game soundtracks all around the world. From here it became clear that the need for a full album was well overdue and so “My New Sunglasses” was born. The album features collaboration from a number of international singers like soul queen Sheila Weaver from Atlanta, Mabreeze from Angola and Portugal, Sarina Leah, from London and the Irish Sinead Savage. An instrumental version of the record is also due for release as a B side.

Freedust: Bio

The year was 2015. The place was an antique music equipment store. And the band that was formed was Freedust: a dynamic duo with a unique swing/electronica fusion-sound. The result, inspired by 30s and 40s jazz and vintage gear filtered through a modern pop and electronica lens, is an innovative yet timeless discography that breaks single-genre convention; a bold, sonic twenty-first century glimpse into a classic past. Audio engineer Daniele Carmosino and singer Lisa Widmark, who met that day amongst creaking Hammonds and weather beaten Mogos, were soon joined by London-based guest singer Sarina Leah. These three Freedusters, heralding from Italy, Sweden, and the UK, took flight: a risk-taking amalgamation of artists that parallel the synthesis of their singular sound.
