Editor's review
Florida indie rock can seem funnily averse to sunshine (case in point: the shadowy murmurs of Sam Beam). Electric President continues that irony. Ben Cooper and Alex Kane's stuff is deliciously indoor music, its wet whispers and nocturnal synths redolent of the Postal Service.
Biography
At the place where Florida pours into the sea Ben Cooper has recorded a second album together with Alex Kane. And they worked again in the same shed at Jacksonville Beach, and in Alex's Bedroom. Concentration and contemplation: over thirteen months they recorded what Ben Cooper calls a “middle of the night record”, his “twelve pop songs about dreams and nightmares”. Dreams and nightmares is what Sleep Well is about. And that although Ghost – the debut of Ben Cooper’s alter ego Radical Face released in 2007 – has already become a ghost album. It is this shadowy and inscrutable atmosphere, these border landscapes of our existence that the 26-year-old deals with.
