Brooklyn-based beat makers Javelin will embark on a coast to coast tour with Sleigh Bells, including a headlining NYC date at Brooklyn Bowl. The group recently returned to SXSW this year for a week of mesmerizing sets, earning them Flavorpill's 'SXSW favorite discoveries.' In celebration of the tour, Javelin will digitally release their two limited edition 12'''s Javelin and Javelin 2 on April 17 with Luaka Bop. Now collector's pieces, Javelin and Javelin 2 were held to 500 copies each and never made the light of a widespread digital day. Taken together, the EPs contain fan favorites like the ferocious 8-bit homage 'Soda Popinski,' 'Beyondce,' and the sublime statement of intent 'Radio.'
Javelin - Soda Popinski
Javelin (cousins George Langford and Tom Van Buskirk) originally released the 12'''s on Thrill Jockey, before signing with Luaka Bop to release their genre-hopping LP No Más and last year's western-inspired Canyon Candy EP. From Providence warehouse parties to Brooklyn warehouse parties to performances at the Whitney Museum, tours with Yeasayer, Girl Talk, Matt & Kim, and sets with Little Dragon and QuestLove, Javelin has carved out a niche uniquely their own. The duo has put its distinctive touch on tracks for Cee-Lo, Warpaint, Future Islands, Darwin Deez and Health and done production work for hip-hop moguls and pop divas. Javelin will release the anticipated follow up to No Más later this year. More details to come.
