A Man Called Sloane 1979

The full details of the soundtrack album for the comedy drama A Man Called Otto have been revealed.

A Man Called Adam’s Sally Rodgers and Steve Jones are back with an album of brand new songs. Like their two previously released and much loved studio albums (The Apple and Duende) Farmarama is a genre-hopping collection of melodic, emotional pop-not-pop tracks that run the gamut the band’s influences. From soulful slow jams to lo-fi disco, from deep house to dub and breakbeat, post-rock electronica and art-house ambience, the vinyl cut of Farmarama features 10 new tracks that retain the distinctive EMO Balearic sound familiar to their many fans yet pushes into new territories.

Throughout his solo career, Alex Chilton was in the unenvious position of having to compete with his work in Big Star. Despite only putting out a few albums, Big Star, even decades later, is one of the most influential power pop bands to ever come out of the U.S. and all three of their official studio albums are undeniable classics. So, anyone having to follow that track record was bound to disappoint some. Throughout the ‘80s and ‘90s, Chilton managed to put out several decent records and a handful of great ones; A Man Called Destruction falls into the latter category.
