"Dark Into Light" is the new single from the cyberspace collaboration of AM & Shawn Lee out July 19, 2011 on ESL.
The L.A. to London, transatlantic musical collaboration was conceived after AM heard Lee on the radio in Los Angeles and reached out to him via email. The two became quick friends sharing a love for vintage grooves and 60's and 70's soundtrack music and decided to embark on making an album 21st century style.

With AM in Los Angeles and Shawn Lee in London the two began bouncing tracks back and fourth resulting in a musical match made in cyberspace propelling the duo into their best work yet.
AM's honeyed vocals ride a driving percussion section straight into walls of shimmering guitars and glassy keyboards pulling elements as disparate as Gary Numan, Jorge Ben, and Ariel Pink into perfect future pop.
Go see this 4 piece open for Thievery Corporation on the road.
