2022年签约肥猫唱片,截至目前已发行四首单曲,总部位于诺丁汉的午夜牛仔竞技现已推出他们的首张专辑《混乱时代》。
大量且不间断的巡演(售罄的家乡演出、大逃亡音乐节、点到点音乐节和肯德尔呼叫音乐节)让他们成为一个紧密团结的团体,他们作为一个整体演奏的乐趣在专辑中即刻显现。当被问及此事时,他们会解释道:“我们希望人们能理解为什么我们在舞台上总是面带微笑。”
这些歌曲是合作的成果。他们不同的音乐背景造就了跨流派且极具独特性的创意碰撞。贝斯手哈里说:“我们所做的是达达主义的。鼓演奏钩子旋律,贝斯演奏通常由铜管乐器承担的部分,吉他在迪斯科节奏上演奏西海岸迷幻风格。”
专辑中的歌曲创作历时较长,可以看作是一种成长“组曲”,因为这群二十多岁的年轻人在探讨人际关系、不断变化的社会动态、起伏的希望与梦想等主题。专辑的标题指的是他们相互扶持度过的诸多个人动荡事件,这也加深了他们的凝聚力。这张专辑没有明确的政治议程,主题是“逃离”。“我们希望人们能跟着跳舞,”他们说。
乐队与萨马纳组合的富兰克林·莫克特一起录制了这张专辑。在一个印度夏季的热浪期间,他们充分利用了这对备受赞誉的组合位于威尔士乡村深处的住宅录音室。目的是排除所有干扰,在莫克特的协助下,尽可能捕捉到乐队现场演奏的状态和模拟音效。在十天里,有时每天进行16小时的录制,音乐、熏香和威士忌不断,老式放大器的电子管闪闪发光。
就像乐队的现场表演一样,《混乱时代》充满了显而易见的快乐,以及在彼此陪伴下创作的兴奋感。其强劲的制作无疑是为了大声播放而设计的。

Signing with FatCat Records in 2022, and having released four singles to date, Nottingham-based Midnight Rodeo have now delivered their debut album, “Chaos Era”.
Extensive, relentless touring (sold-out hometown shows,The Great Escape, Dot To Dot, and Kendall Calling) created a tight-knit family, their pleasure in playing as an ensemble is instantly evident on the album. When asked about this they’ll explain, “We want people to tap into why we are always smiling on stage.”
The songs are collaborative efforts. Their different musical backgrounds result in a genre criss-crossing and totally unique creative collisions. Bassist Harry says, “What we do is Dada-istic. The drums play hooks, the bass plays parts usually taken by brass, the guitar’s playing West Coast psyche over disco rhythms.”
Written over a prolonged period of time, the songs on the album can be viewed as a kind of coming-of-age “suite”, as the unit of 20-somethings wrestle with subjects such as relationships, shifting social dynamics, changing hopes and dreams. The LP’s title refers to tumultuous personal events they’ve helped each other through. Reinforcing their bonding. With no pointed political agenda, the album is about “escape”. “We want people to dance”, they say.
The band recorded the album with Samana’s Franklin Mockett. Making full use of the acclaimed duo’s residential studio, located deep in the Welsh countryside, during an Indian summer heatwave. The aim was to remove all distractions, and, with Mockett’s assistance, capture the group as live, and as analogue, as possible. For 10 days, in sometimes 16 hour sessions, music, incense, and whiskey flowed, while vintage amp valves glowed.
Just like the band’s live performances, “Chaos Era” is packed with a palpable joy. The exhilaration of creation in each others company. Its punchy production is most definitely meant to be played loud.
