“Luna” by Bombay Bicycle Club

"Luna" comes from So Long, See You Tomorrow, the fourth album by London's Bombay Bicycle Club, released in February 2014 and named after a William Maxwell novel. Jack Steadman wrote it by himself and co-produced it with Ben H. Allen, and he's all over it, singing, playing piano and working the sampler, with Suren de Saram on drums and Rae Morris's voice alongside his.

The record grew out of Steadman's travels through India, Japan and Turkey, and it pushed the band further from the guitars of their debut toward sampling, electronica and borrowings from music around the globe. They cut it in their own studio, Mark Rankin, whose resume includes Queens of the Stone Age's ...Like Clockwork, mixed it, and it was the first of their releases produced by one of their own.
