Today, The Midnight share “Dance With Somebody,” the bubbly and irresistible new track from their forthcoming album MONSTERS, out July 10th. “The record’s about isolation, loneliness, and the adolescent need for connection—how we don’t really realize that we’ve opened ourselves up too much until we get hurt and then we close off...“Dance With Somebody” is essentially telling the shy kid in the back of the class not to put up too many barriers and to take off your armor. Sometimes it’s Friday night and you just can’t help it, you have to go dancing,” says The Midnight’s Tyler Lyle about the new track.

The Midnight announced MONSTERS last month with the release of “Deep Blue,” which resulted in a cascade of fan reaction GIFs and over half a million Spotify streams to date. The new lyric video for “Deep Blue” (directed by Kidmograph) is a computer kid’s nostalgia trip, back to MS-DOS prompts and vintage computer games. TechCrunch called it “the new synth pop you need in your life” — watch here: https://tcrn.ch/2THr9dE

MONSTERS is The Midnight’s follow-up to 2018’s KIDS, which hit #1 on the Billboard Electronic Albums Chart. MONSTERS sees a continuation of The Midnight's immersive world-building that has attracted a rabid fanbase. It’s a communal coalition of internet culture obsessives, bedroom producers, cosplayers, teenagers, their parents, and everyone in between that gathers on Reddit boards to remix tracks, discover easter eggs in their mythology-stuffed artwork, and opine about theories and personal connection to the music that has helped drive the LA duo’s unique grassroots success.
