MGMT album two may have electro influences
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 9 February 2009
CMU favourites MGMT have said their second album could be more electro influenced than their 2008 debut.
Speaking to Rolling Stone, one half of the duo, Andrew VanWyngarden, said: “We’ve been listening to a lot of old eighties stuff. Some of that early Kraftwerk stuff is great. We are huge fans of those guys and the other early German electronic stuff. I think more of that stuff is going to find its way into our music”.
Those comments follow the news last year that the duo plan to work with the Chemical Brothers on album number two, though at the time they told the NME that didn’t mean they’d be making dance music.
