Neon Indian shares behind the scenes video of “Slumlord Rising” via Baeble, plus updated live dates & Sundance DJ set

Neon Indian shares a short behind-the-scenes documentary on the making of its “Slumlord Rising” short film / music video, directed by Pete Ohs and premiered via Baeble. Watch the full video here. The band has east coast shows at the end of the month in Boston, Brooklyn, Montreal and Toronto. Then they head to the west coast in Feb. for shows in Orange County, LA (where they will be joined by hotly tipped newcomer Charles) Santa Barbara and SF. Before all that action, Alan will DJ at the Sundance Base Camp on Jan. 23 alongside Flying Lotus.

Neon Indian’s comeback album, VEGA INT. Night School has placed on many year-end lists, most notably Pitchfork (top albums & singles lists & on Readers Poll), Buzzfeed, Gorilla Vs. Bear, Apple Music, The 405, The Line of Best Fit, Under The Radar, COMPLEX, IHEARTCOMIX, Remezcla, Urban Outfitters & more

Pitchfork wrote about the album in their Best Albums of 2015 list:

“VEGA INTL. Night School has one golden rule it requires of listeners: get dancing. It’s an easy request to make, considering that Palomo has pushed his solo act to its most enjoyable, accessible peak. Over an hour of catchy electro-dance tracks, Palomo draws on all the style, energy, and excess of the ’80s for a set of glitchy, sample-happy romps. Many songs here openly call back to his past solo work as VEGA, coming across as an extended DJ set best suited for gleaming discotheques where clubgoers are dressed in garish get-ups, everyone’s eyes are a little glazed over, and last call never, ever comes.”
