Disclosure have dropped a new single and video “Arachnids,” the track definitely embraces their more experimental side, and is out today via Warehouse Project Records/Capitol Records. The video was directed by UNCANNY (Porter Robinson, Danny Brown). The brothers Guy and Howard Lawrence get set to present their hugely popular Friends & Family show tonight at The Warehouse Project in Manchester, UK.

Written and produced by Guy, “Arachnids” strays from the pop sensibilities of past hits like “Latch” ft. Sam Smith, ultimately taking the form of a spellbinding instrumental piece that’s endlessly shifting in texture and intensity. In bringing the moody and majestic track to life, Guy immersed himself in what he refers to as “an ever-evolving creative puzzle of sound design and groove exploration,” taking months to shape its expansive arrangement of sonic details: wildly careening beats, throbbing grooves, incandescent synth, hauntingly ethereal vocal effects. Constructed around a 10-minute drum-machine.

“For me, ‘Arachnids’ is kind of like a diary entry of where my skills in music are currently at, in terms of mix and production,” says Guy. “I wanted to ask myself questions like, ‘How far can I stretch and evolve this fairly simple drum loop? Can it go through almost multiple genres along the way? Do I need more than one chord? Can the kick be the bassline?’ There was so much creative freedom and so many nerdy moments in the studio, but with the aim of keeping the foundation and groove simple and concise. It’s not gonna be one you can sing along to, but I hope you get a lot of enjoyment from it. I know I did.”

The brothers, just played CRSSD in San Diego, Portola in San Francisco, and III Points in Miami, Disclosure will bring their Friends & Family club series to Manchester’s Depot Mayfield tonight. As part of their highly anticipated return to the city’s premier event venue, Disclosure will take over three rooms alongside a specially curated lineup featuring Folamour, Floating Points (DJ set), DJ BORING b2b Sam Alfred, Jyoty, Sally C, and many more.
