German avant-garde darkwave iconic duo Deine Lakaien released a lyric video for their amazing take on the Pink Floyd classic "Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun". This is the second single taken from their forthcoming new album Dual +, which is set for release on the 26th of November via Prophecy Productions.
In the wake of "Duals" artistic principle of "cause and effect", embodied by a cover song and a related original new track, Dual + is broadening this concept and condensing it into one compact album. Yet the gently melancholic relationship between the previous single "Nightfall" (you can check it out over HERE) and the Pink Floyd cover "Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun" will become easily apparent to the avid listener.
"When I was 18 years old, I got very much hooked on psychedelic music", recalls Ernst Horn. "The rage of the day was beat, which was quite tame and still very much influenced by rock and roll. Along came young acts such as Pink Floyd, Cream, and of course Jimi Hendrix that opened the gates wide. They all had been influenced by the experiments of The Beatles producer George Martin. "Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun" is a very psychedelic song and forever a part of my world. It was a great experience for me to work with these sounds that have always been with me and to bring them to the environment of my studio. As I see, this song is a subtle ode to the sun gifting life and most of all love to this planet. We should recognise and turn towards it." Link
