Royal Family

Royal Family is the second in a series of three singles from Free Blood, the new Brooklyn two-piece consisting of Madeline Davy (Octopi NYC) and John Pugh (formerly of !!!).

On the first track, the hypnotic vocals and melancholy rhythms of 'Royal Family,' accompanied by its haunting piano stabs and pounding drums, make for a unique, futuristic pop song. The Brothers then strip it down to its bare essentials for a more four-on-the-floor club version, creating a big-room sound with throbbing synths and layered vocals--and with the original production on 'Royal Family' so outstanding, who better to do the remix?

'Grumpy,' includes tuff cello stabs and screeching vocal effects over a raucous disco break. Warped and funky is one way to describe it. UK disco DJ and re-edit legend Greg Wilson closes the single with his own take on the track.
