Beck to life, Beck to reality
Beck is back, and this time he’s bringing his (hopefully weird) ‘Dreams’
A possible new single, next week, with artwork that suggests his more poptastic follow up to ‘Morning Phase’ may be about to drop? Yes please.
Beck. What’s he up to now, eh? Probably - maybe - about to drop a new single, by the looks of things.
Sharing new artwork on Twitter, in the form of a GIF (so ‘up’ with the times), for something titled ‘Dreams’, the fresh activity ties in with a tweet from a WYEP music director which suggests a new single which will debut on Monday (15th June).
There’s even more reason to be excited. Just look at that artwork. It’s not serious, it’s a bit wacky - in fitting with Beck’s more poptastic, weird, fun albums. He’s been promising a more immediate follow up to Grammy-winning ‘Morning Phase’ for a while now. It seems it may finally be here.
Beck will support The Strokes at BST Hyde Park next Thursday, 18th June. By then, all should be clear.
UPDATE: He’s now shared what appears to be a snippet of the song on Instagram.
