Stream Dan Deacon’s Bromst On NPR

Dan Deacon was just a DJ playing basements and small clubs six years ago, but eventually his spastic electric-pop spread like fire and he is now one of Baltimore’s leading artists. After Spiderman of the Rings was a success, he set out to tour the world along with 14 others accompanying him in support of his latest album, Bromst.

I suppose all this could get you featured in NPR’s Exclusive First Listen series. (It also helps that Deacon went to school for all this!) They’ve gone as far as describing him as “electro freak-pop” but also did a good job pointing out that Bromst goes beyond Spiderman of the Rings by adding organic instruments such as the piano, glockenspiel, and marimba to his former electronic-only sound. You can listen to the Bromst on NPR before its release on March 24th via Carpark and get a free download of “Getting Older” from us.
