WORLD PREMIER - "Emissaries (LIVE)" on 'The Big Takeover'

You want new music? Check this out! Just a little taste of good things to come and a huge thank you to The Big Takeover for the feature.

In the words of Sleepersound Drummer, Dan Niedziejko:

This track is an exclusive pre-production live cut of an unreleased song called “Emissaries”. Our most recent record “Idle Voices”, which was recorded over the pandemic, really got our collective juices flowing. While this song is unreleased and destined for the next album proper, we feel like it’s been a track that has really earned a spot in our live setlist rotation. It just missed the cut for “Idle Voices” based on production timelines. It’s an unusual song for us because, frankly, everyone is playing just one instrument and not switching to synths and back and forth, which is a real departure for us. When we play this, it’s a lot of fun to channel all of our energy into just one instrument, one groove and feel this one coming off the stage and into the audience. Can we say a little more “stripped down” despite the shoegaze guitar hook at the end? The next record is coming together and it’s songs like this, with some variation on approach – at least for us – that is really getting us excited for the next chapter.
