“With it’s ecstatic, unironic exuberance – not to mention a good, old fashioned banging piano – “Happy House” from The Juan MacLean tops them all.”
– Time Out New York, THE BEST OF 2008
“We got a taste of the future with “Happy House”, a new track that make good on every element of its title.” – LA Times, October 2008
If ever there was a musical act guaranteed to put a smile on your face, The Juan MacLean is it! In fact, so confident of their intent and ability to bring joy to the world, they actually called their latest dance jam “Happy House,” which nobody could dispute. The track had music lovers like our friends at The Fader “drooling like babies”, while Pitchfork noted that the song’s “dozen never-wasted minutes” were “happy and housey as all get out.”
Finally, The Future Will Come, The Juan MacLean’s highly anticipated sophomore album, will be released April 14th on DFA Records. Unabashedly emotional, both in lyrically and musically, it’s difficult not to let each song take over your head and body, turning you into the dancing, breathing robot Juan MacLean and Nancy Whang (of LCD Soundsystem) sing about.
With the help of DFA labe mates Gerry Fuchs (formerly of !!!) and Nick Millhiser and Alex Frankel (Holy Ghost!), The Future Will Come features both 2008 club hits, “The Simple Life” and “Happy House”, along 8 other blessed out tracks that are sure to soothe your soul in these trying times.
In preparation for the release of The Future Will Come next month, The Juan MacLean will drop a remix EP for “One Day” (available both digitally and on vinyl) this week, featuring remixes by Mark Romboy, The Emperor Machine and Surkin, along with a digital only remix by Lazaro Casanova.
