The Knocks and Dragonette unveiled their new single “Dreams” yesterday.
The song, which can be heard here, comes from The Knocks and Dragonette’s forthcoming collaboration album Revelation. Dragonette said this about the new single:
“I don’t know why but I’ve always wanted to write a song about a sex dream. Dreams in general can be such an upside down adventure and when you find yourself in a moment of intimacy with someone in a dream, it feels singularly personal and intimate because neither the subject nor your consciousness was present. It belongs to a different you, living in a different realm. There is no transgression. It is innocent. For me, that’s why a song about a sex dreams needs to feel mostly PG…. No matter what happened with whom in that realm, we’re both innocent.”
Revelation will be released on June 6th via Neon Gold Records / Futures / Virgin. Pre-saves for the album can be made here. The Knocks and Dragonette will have a slew of shows in the following weeks. Tour dates can be seen below. Tickets are on sale to the general public right now.
