Metronomy will release their new single ‘I’m Aquarius’ via a smartphone app.
Britain’s most-loved, quintessentially English, modern pop act Metronomy return next week after 18 months with comeback single ‘I’m Aquarius’. Metronomy is the creation of singer, writer and producer and expert musician Joseph Mount.
In a truly innovative development in first listens of new music, ‘I’m Aquarius’ will be available for fans to hear first via The Night Sky app, which can be download from iOS or Android app store for 99p. The Night Sky is a beautiful, magical way of identifying the stars, planets, galaxies, constellations and even satellites above in the sky in an awe-inspiring visual way. Stand anywhere and hold your handset up to the sky and The Night Sky creates an enchanting replication, which displays the names of the stars, planets and other objects one can see in the sky. Even if your view is obscured by clouds or daylight the app will know which stars, planets, constellations are hiding from your view.
To be the first to hear Metronomy’s brand new single, users must log into The Night Sky app at 7pm on Monday November 11th. The track will be available on the app for one week. All users (new and existing) will receive an update that they need to activate. Once activated, users must scan the sky, looking for the Aquarius constellation. Once found, they will be able to play the single by simply clicking the constellation itself.
Metronomy’s The English Riviera, released on Because Music, became one of the most critically acclaimed albums of 2011. Nominated for a Barclaycard Mercury Music Prize. Joseph Mount went on to sell out huge UK and worldwide tours including a packed out show at London’s prestigious Royal Albert Hall and racking up 250,000 sales worldwide.
