Lyrics:

Working late and playing hard
I love him, I love him
Drinking beer in smoke lit bars
I need him, I need him
He longs for a sense of direction
and lives in pursuit of perfection

Let our souls collide, blinded by your light
live in black and white, but you're stuck
You're beyond compare, see you everywhere
and I'll say my prayers, wish me luck

He's got a thirst for class, took a sip of money, 
now he wants the whole glass
He's got a thirst for class, took a sip of money, 
now he wants the whole glass

Opulence and widened eyes
I love him, I love him
Trying his future out for size
I need him, I need him
He's changing his mind like the weather
but these storms they won't last forever

Let our souls collide, blinded by your light
live in black and white, but you're stuck
You're beyond compare, see you everywhere
and I'll say my prayers, wish me luck

He's got a thirst for class, took a sip of money, 
now he wants the whole glass
He's got a thirst for class, took a sip of money, 
now he wants the whole glass

London duo Liu Bei have announced the release of a new double A­-side 7” single, ‘Mind Over Matter' b/w  'Philip Seymour Hoffman’, out September 25th via new London imprint Famous Friends.

Finding themselves enamoured with recent albums by the likes of Son Lux, Purity Ring, and Youth Lagoon, a newly inspired Liu Bei returned to the studio in late Spring to explore new musical territories.
Frontman Richard Walters: “When Liu Bei started it kind of felt like we were tweaking a radio dial, searching out our place in things...where we're at now is just a clearer, more focused, very slightly more electronic version of where we began...it's like we just came out of a reverb fog.” 

The result is 'Mind Over Matter', a perfectly crafted four minutes of joyous pop, brimming with energy and emotion. Produced by band member Patrick James Pearson (AKA San Felu) at Middle Farm Studio in Devon, the tracks effortlessly combines Wild Beasts-esque rhythms, swelling synths, ear-worm inducing hooks and soaring vocals to create something truly special. 

The release follows a frenetic 12 months for Liu Bei which has seen the band release their debut single ‘Infatuation’ to universal critical acclaim; tour with Dry The River, as well as playing their own sell­out shows across the UK; and collaborating with Slowdive’s Rachel Goswell on a track ('Fields) from the bands ‘Goodness EP’, released via Museumgoer Records in February 2015.

Collaboration is nothing new for Liu Bei’s Richard Walters and Patrick James Pearson who have
independently worked as songwriters, working alongside the likes of Grammy award winning singer/songwriter Joe Henry, Icelandic composer Olafur Arnalds, rising star Grace Lightman and London band We Are the Ocean, to name a few. 
Collectively, their work together as Liu Bei recently attracted the attention of DJ and house producer Solomun, who was so taken with the band that he produced not one but two remixes of LB track ‘Atlas World’ (Day / Night). Both cuts were released on Solomun’s own 2DIY4 label earlier this year with 'Day' reaching #1 on the Beatport Electronica chart (both made the top ten) and receiving strong radio support across Europe.

‘Mind Over Matter / Philip Seymour Hoffman’ will be released on September 25th via Famous Friends. 

The band play two headline shows in October to celebrate the release:

01­ Oct - London, Hoxton Bar & Kitchen 
(Tickets: http://bit.ly/1DpUXjl)

02­ Oct - Oxford, The Bullingdon 
(Tickets: http://bit.ly/1P3qglm)

Recorded during sessions for critically acclaimed debut album A Dream Outside, the band recently took the time during a hectic live calendar to revisit the tracks and this release was born.
 
It was a process that has also led them to a new creative partner in producer/mixer Nicolas Vernhes (Deerhunter, The War On Drugs, Animal Collective) who worked with the band on lead track ‘Tired Eyes’ - a live favourite now fully realised.
 
Frontman Felix Bushe had this to say on working with the revered producer:
 
“We have been huge admirers of Nicholas Vernhes and all the incredible records he has produced and recorded. It was a real dream come true to find that he was a fan of what we were doing and be given the opportunity to work together and a song of ours.”
 
 
This extended player features further new material in the tracks ‘Loki’ and ‘Fade To Black’, both initial contenders for the debut album that the quartet is excited to share with this release.
 
The ‘Tired Eyes’ EP will also form part of a deluxe edition of A Dream Outside, released Wednesday 30th September, it will also make much loved b-side ‘Haunter’ and recent Fugazi cover ‘I’m So Tired’ available.

MultiGold

Our worlds are torn in two, when we don’t follow rules as we are told 
You make your own way to the places underneath to free your soul
Never mind we’re multi and we’re gold
Never mind the feelings’ taking hold, take me home
I know you know we’re not that cold, i know you know it’s time to go 

I need you so you can 
See me, feel me, need me, 
throw your feelings on my 
Body, touch me, free me
Stay awake so you can
Phase me, chase me, daze me, 
Turn two bodies into gold 

In pages of our dreams, we’re told that all we thought is new is old, it’s getting old
Nothing stays the same, you don’t get anywhere until your bold 
Never mind we’re multi and we’re gold
Never mind the feelings’ taking hold, take me home
Low beneath the riverflows, a multi-gold we thought we’d never know

All in dreams and goals
feel, find love and hold
Things you wish to know
Come when we let go

and i know what i need is, 
never know what your need is
And i know what I need is
Multi-gold

Multigold

Produced and Mixed by Andrew & Greg Seltzer

Lyrics:

Tell me baby
What's been on your mind?
What brews behind your eyes?
I tell you all the time
Frustrating
That you don't reveal
Do you let yourself feel for anything that's real
Or true and blue?
Cause that's beautiful 
For anything that's real or true and blue?
That's beautiful 

I'm so sorry to leave for somewhere I can finally breathe
Somewhere underneath the surface
Carried out to the shore fighting your undertow
Tried to get underneath your surface 

Tell me baby 
What's the new excuse?
Do I make you scared to lose?
You're forcing me to choose
Been waiting
For ya to come clean, know you know what I mean. come gimme something
Real and true and blue, something beautiful
Gimme gimme something real and true and blue
So beautiful 

I'm so sorry to leave for somewhere I can finally breathe
Somewhere underneath the surface
Carried out to the shore fighting your undertow
Tried to get underneath your surface 
Been tryin to get to you I still can't seem to break on through
Underneath the surface 
Been tryin to get to you I still can't seem to break on through
Underneath the surface, we keep fighting underneath the surface 

I just wanted to see your soul in the iris of my eyes
Or, let it pour on down in pieces from the sky
Cause I would've drowned over a million times
Never needing to rise
Never needing to rise
Never needing to rise
For air.

So sorry to leave for somewhere I can finally breathe
Somewhere underneath the surface
Carried out to the shore fighting your undertow 
Tried to get underneath your surface

I'm so sorry to leave for somewhere I can finally breathe
Somewhere underneath the surface
Carried out to the shore fighting your undertow
Tried to get underneath your surface 
Been tryin to get to you I still can't seem to break on through
Underneath the surface 
Been tryin to get to you I still can't seem to break on through
Underneath the surface, we keep fighting underneath the surface

Nocturnal

Linger by The Cranberries
Produced & mixed by Dresage
Mastered by Derek Snyder

I want to thank Dolores O'Riordan and the members of The Cranberries for helping shape me as a musician. I hope by taking this out of its hiding place on a hard drive from 2015 it can be shared as a tribute to her legacy. Rest in power <3
