“Something For Your M.I.N.D.” Superorganism

According to their bio, Superorganism— is a sprawling, multi-limbed collection of international musicians and pop culture junkies. Recently the group released their single “Something For Your M.I.N.D.” alongside a band-directed video for the track.

The band formed in early 2017, members come from London, Japan, Australia and New Zealand—seven of whom now live together in a house/DIY studio/band HQ in Homerton, east London.

Though they’d previously created music and visuals together, this was something distinctly fresh. They sent an early demo of a track to their friend Orono, a Japanese student who at that time was studying at a high school in Maine. Orono wrote and recorded a vocal part and pressed “reply.” That track was “Something For Your M.I.N.D.” Superorganism was born.

“‘Something For Your M.I.N.D.’ was created purely online,” says Orono of the track. “My buddies in London sent me the demo on Facebook, then I wrote the lyrics and recorded the vocals on Garageband via my Macbook microphone in about an hour or two…then it was pretty much done! We just had to add a couple of key missing ingredients to the mix: some sweet backing vocals, sick artwork, Tucan’s magical touch to make the track sound even more dope, and chemical X.

We’re more than excited to bring this song back to life (officially) and to let it, once again, fluoresce on the dark corners of the Internet.”

Today’s release follows an unofficial online premiere earlier this year that sparked much speculation about the artists behind the track and support from the likes of Frank Ocean and Vampire Weekend’s Ezra Koenig on their respective radio shows.

Superorganism are set to the play their first-ever run of live dates across the U.S., Europe and the U.K. Following a debut live show at Hamburg’s Reeperbahn Festival on September 22, they will play their first ever U.K. show at London’s Village Underground on October 5.
