NEW unreleased track announced soon to coincide with the tour !
These two artists both have a rich history in the music industry, Sean as a member
of The Soup Dragons and more recently as a DJ and electronic artist HiFi Sean,
and McAlmont as a renowned solo artist and vocalist on what many consider to be
one of the greatest pop songs of all time, ‘Yes’ by McAlmont & Butler. The two met
when Hifi Sean invited David McAlmont to feature on his 2019 album FT, which
also featured Alan Vega, Bootsy Collins, Crystal Waters, Little Annie, Paris Grey
(formerly of Inner City) and more - the single Testify (ft Crystal Waters) was a US
Dance Chart topper and Radio 2 A List record.
Their collaboration developed via WhatsApp, email and eventually Dropbox, with
Hifi uploading arrangements and McAlmont returning demos. No studios. No
engineer. Just McAlmont and Hifi on the eighteenth floor of a London tower block
within hearing distance of the Bow bells. The lofty setting with spectacular 270-
degree views of the city, complete with sunsets, sunrises and murmurating ravens
when storms approached was perfect for McAlmont who detests studios; Hifi, on
the other hand, armed with a laptop and progressive plug ins, can make music
anywhere.
The result is this exciting collection of songs on their debut album HAPPY ENDING
, an electronic, psychedelic soul adventure featuring an eighty-piece Bollywood
orchestra recorded in a film studio in Bangalore India on some of the tracks. They
locate their sound for this album somewhere between steam punk soul and space
race blues.
Their 2nd album released in 2024 was DAYLIGHT a Summer odyssey
depicting euphoria and ecstasy bathed in sunlight glow.
The current sister album and 3rd album by the duo is TWILIGHT which was
released on Valentines day 2025 and depicts the darker winter months but with a
warm hue that gets you completely sonically bathed in sound.
