Groove Armada return with a super new single and soon-to-release new album.

Fans of Groove Armada may well have been wondering where the duo – Andy Cato and Tom Findlay - have been of late. But the boys have put away their side projects (The Lovebox Weekender, TuneTribe.come etc) and are all set to return in May with a brand new album – Soundboy Rock. It is already mastered and finished and promises to be a return to form to one of the UK’s best and most innovative acts.

The album launch is to be preceded by the single Get Down. For anyone familiar with the Armada - from their debut album Vertigo to the mellow vibe (except Super Stylin, of course) of the 2001 album Goodbye Country, (Hello Nightclub), Get Down is a significant departure.

A mix-up of classic breaks and Caribbean-style dance hall vocals, featuring Stush, with some infectiously bouncy beats and riffs, all produced in Groove Armada’s indomitable style, this single is reminiscent of many a Basement Jaxx’s track.

Already doing the rounds on radio and one of Pete Tong's Essential Selections, Get Down is undoubtedly going to become one of the hot tracks of the summer. If the extracts for the new album are anything to go by though, the album as a whole will be the usual mixture of uplifting anthems (remember Super Stylin!) and mellow, chilled out tracks. Enjoy! Single released on 30th April.
