about

Transatlantic DJ and production duo Flying Mojito Bros step assuredly into original music-making with propulsive new single Glitter.

Written by FMB with London-based American musician and vocalist Robert Chaney, the track kicks you rolling and tumbling further into the distinctive world that Flying Mojito Bros have built around themselves over the past decade.

Using live band recordings as much as electronic composition for their original music production, Flying Mojito Bros draw on the 1970s supergroup sessions concept to produce the studio material they then work with. Making calls from their invaluable Little Black Book of Badass Players, Glitter features performances by Chaney on vocals, the mighty Shawn Lee (of Ping Pong Orchestra and Young Gun Silver Fox fame) on drums, and bass guitar by Joe Stoddart, a touring artist for disco-pop royalty ABBA.

Thrusting the listener onto the dancefloors of long-forgotten road movie dive bars – Glitter sees the dazzling reflections of a single disco ball and ten thousand biker jacket studs shimmering from backdoor to barback, catching a certain mezcal-minded cougar on the prowl.

Inspired by countercultural road movies, acid westerns and their own desert experiences, Flying Mojito Bros conspired to create the sound of "a contemporary reboot of cult 1971 film 'Zachariah – The First Electric Western', shifting its 1870s setting a century further while accelerating cameo stars The James Gang's funk rock FMB-style into the 2020s. Chaney lays down his killer sleazoid vocal, and we’re shining"

Chaney adds:

"I stayed up all night writing and recording all the vocals, and then at like 4am accidentally deleted it all. God damn. I had to come back the next night and remember/redo everything. I pulled another all-nighter. It came out even better the second time, and I was definitely feeling the right kind of sleazy by that point"

Slip into this glistening, greasy nightscape with Flying Mojito Bros and tear it up.
