Art Department announce the release of "Cruel Intentions feat. Seth Troxler", the first single from the highly anticipated sophomore studio album, "Natural Selection". The track will premiere on Pete Tong's legendary BBC Radio 1show on 17th October, before receiving an official release through No.19 Music on the 10th November. "Cruel Intentions" is a brooding whirlwind of hypnotic beats, layered synths and off-centre vocals courtesy of Kenny Glasgow. True to form, the track brims with Art Department's signature impeccable arrangement; simplistic perfection, distorted through a murderous bass line and raw textures, topped with hauntingly eerie spoken word verses by long-standing friend and collaborator, Seth Troxler. Stepping up for the first remix is revered house master and Ibadan Records boss Jerome Sydenham. His 'Deep Space Dub' reinterpretation is just that - it relies on classic sounding drums, seeing Jerome layer space-age melodies whilst permeating the track with a kinetic sense of intergalactic energy. One for the late night hours, it's a sumptuous affair from start to finish. Completing this most discerning package is Fred P, boss of the Soul People label and a true master of deep house, bringing two mixes to the table with his signature reshapes. Heavy drums, floating synth lines, which hover over the landscaped drums, really take the listener on a trip. Tension builds throughout and the original vocals are reduced to freaky, indecipherable mutters that add another level of intrigue to an already heady track. "Cruel Intentions" is an exquisite introduction to Art Department's forthcoming sophomore album More
