艺人介绍
The New Division, an electronic band based out of Southern California, was founded in 2008 by John Glenn Kunkel (writer/vocalist). What began as a college bedroom project in Riverside, CA was eventually met with critical success in the winter 2011 debut E.P., 'The Rookie'. A few months later, the first full length record entitled 'Shadows', was declared album of the year by several renowned music tastemakers and garnered the band an international following.
'Night Escape', which was released as the second E.P. in 2012, shifted gears with the project's song craft. Sonically, it featured a more developed and refined dance oriented sound encompassing lush expansive instrumentation and brighter tonalities. An appearance by the Greek Balearic outfit Keep Shelly in Athens, and the unprecedented success of the second single 'Kids' paved a new vantage point for the act.
2014 marks the beginning of a new era. The sophomore LP 'Together We Shine' is the culmination of 2 years of hard work and utter chaos. What was initially to be the follow up to 2011's 'Shadows' was completely discarded, and a new vision infused with trance, progressive house and an array of other electronic dance genres was appropriated in the project's signature sound. One year into production, John's hard drive was completely shredded and all of his back up files were error ridden, he was back to square one. Frustrated, dejected and in the midst of abandoning the album, he decided to give the writing process one more try. This collection of 11 tracks, featuring appearances by Dave Keuning (The Killers) on Smile, Starflyer 59 on Honest, and Sarah (Keep Shelly in Athens) on England, is the realization of that endeavor.

- @封贞禁色：the new division是08年横空出世的一支乐队，当我第一耳听到惊喜如沐春风。 当今乐坛充斥大量参差不齐的民谣，没内容没态度，粗制滥造，不绝于耳，我烦了。 分众市场我们就希望听到不同风格精致的音乐。 the new division在我听来融合了摇滚的元素，电子的风骨，节奏的巧妙把握，合成器的精确运用。这种音乐我想每个人听到都是开心的，它跳跃，灵动，时尚不烂俗，不同于强劲的电音，诡异的trip-hop和矫情献媚的pop-dance。音乐的好与坏不好界定，我想能让你思考，悲伤，开心这些都是评判它的因素，至少在the new division里我听到了愉悦！！

- @我爱喝甜汤汤(一命通关吧。)：好喜欢together we shine(remixes)这张专辑里的remix,发现the new division的混音真的很特别，那种飘渺大气的感觉一听就是他们的风格，都说迷幻乐起源于音乐家吸毒以后的灵感，戴着耳机，躺在黑暗的房间里，听着他们的电子乐我真的有种奇异飘飘然的感觉= =好喜欢
