Holy Ghost! is an American synthpop duo from Brooklyn, New York City, consisting of Nick Millhiser and Alex Frankel. Millhiser and Frankel both grew up on the Upper West Side of New York City and attended elementary school together. They were later part of a hip hop group called Automato. Automato’s debut album was produced by James Murphy and Tim Goldsworthy of The DFA. After the release of the album, Automato “kind of fell apart”. However, Millhiser and Frankel kept working on music. Initially it was going to be more hip hop work, but decided to create music with vocals and poppier arrangements. The name Holy Ghost! was selected just before the pressing of their debut single “Hold On” in November 2007. The single was described by Resident Advisor as “one of the dirtiest little Italo tunes you’re likely to hear this year”. The duo continued to work on various remixes for the likes of Moby, Cut Copy and MGMT. Their second single, “I Will Come Back” was initially released in conjunction with Mountain Dew’s Green Label Sound record label. A video was made for the single that is a shot-for-shot remake of New Order’s “Confusion” video, including Arthur Baker reprising his role from the original. The song was later included on the “Static on the Wire” EP, released on the 18 May 2010. The duo also began to play live, starting with a tour with label mates LCD Soundsystem. The duo also worked on a self-titled album, which was released on April 2, 2011.[7][8] Their second album, Dynamics, is scheduled for release on September 10, 2013. Wikipedia®.
Holy Ghost! – Dumb Disco Ideas
Holy Ghost! – Dumb Disco Ideas Lyrics:
Cool summer like no water
I thought you … by now
I need water, we need water
I need something just to wash us down with!
Open the shutter, to let the light out
…my numbers and a foreign sound
I need thunder, we need thunder
I need something from my summer drought!
Shake it off, shake it off
Don’t let that big idea go to waste now!
Shake it off, shake it off
Don’t let that big idea go to waste now!
Come on, come on, there’s no time to waste now!
Cool summer for cool lovers
This building’s got a club in the basement
I need water, we need water
We share a taxi with the local native.
Waiting on the paycheck, playing on a big scene
My numbers and a foreign sound
I need water, we need water
I need something from my summer drought!
Put it off, put off
Can’t be tomorrow what we had today
Put it off, put off
I got the needle and the….
Cool summer for full somewhere
Double down while the market’s high
I need contact, I need contact
Undercover on the edge of the block!
Waiting on the paycheck, playing on a big scene
Not everything I’ve done comes out of mouth
I need another, I need another
Just give me something for my summer drought!
Put it off, put off
Can’t be tomorrow what we had today
Put it off, put off
I got the needle and the….
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Put it off and off
Put it off, and off, and wait, and wait for another day
Put it off if it’s for another day!
Put it off, and off, and wait, and wait for another day
Put it off if it’s for another day!
Put it off, and off, and wait, and wait for another day
Put it off if it’s for another day!
Put it off, and off, and wait, and wait for another day
Put it off if it’s for another day!
Put it off, and off, and wait, and wait for another day
Put it off if it’s for another day!
Put it off, and off, and wait, and wait for another day
Put it off if it’s for another day!
Put it off, and off, and wait, and wait for another day
Put it off if it’s for another day!
