songs you make at night (purple vinyl)

we really wanted to do a tunng record going back to the original line up. there was a real magic in the early records that we all wanted to capture again in this one.

songs you make at night finds a group of people reconnecting with a previous collective state to bring out something new and forward-looking. we’re all so different but each bring something essential, something tunng to the party. be that to the studio, to the stage, to the van, or to the pub. becky: “i think that the new songs mike and sam have crafted between them have brought out the best in all of us.”

the album’s tone, theme, lyrics, mood and characters exist in a fluctuating state between night and day, the conscious and unconscious. sam: “i got very much into the idea of a dark underwater world suffused with pockets of light and beauty and some of the songs grew out of that.” crepuscular in its nature, mike explains the all-encompassing title: “i think it’s also important to stress the songs you make at night not, we make at night. then the word ‘songs’ can mean a multitude of things. it can mean songs, or dreams, pillow talk or actions and decisions, moves, and can be very personal… the thoughts that keep you awake at night.”
