Last Dinosaurs return to the spotlight today with their French house inspired new single ‘Flying’. This 90’s Nu-Disco vibe has always been in Last Dinosaurs’ D.N.A having covered artists in their live show like Jamiroquai, Spiller, Sophie Ellis Bextor, Modjo and Daft Punk. So they’ve decided to have a little fun with it and enjoy themselves in the process.
‘Flying’ premiered on Triple j’s Goodnights with Bridget Hustwaite and the video on Music Feeds last night.

Lach comments on their new single, “Flying”, which harkens back to the tongue and cheek, cheesy and dramatic love / flirt tales of the Nu-Disco genre. “We were kids when we heard this stuff on the radio and TV so it’s in our reptile brains and it’ll never get out.
The demo was made at a time when I had to either be wallowing in loneliness, or enjoying the freedoms let’s say, of a single young man. My friend from Spain about 12 years my senior whom I consider to be a brother was responsible to helping me capitalise on this time, and for a period of about 6 months took me out every Friday to admittedly tacky clubs and shithouse bars. Of course, I was nervous and uncomfortable in the beginning, but I eventually learned to embrace being the very kind of sleeze-bag that I still despise, only because I had no choice. In this profoundly sultry yet transformational journey I found that one of the central distractors from ‘success’ was phones.
You’d think European backpackers wouldn’t have sim cards most of the time, but I guess the clubs had free wifi”. So, this formative period of going to euro-dance clubs and trying my luck got me vibing on Nu-Disco again. I can romanticize this period through a cool and corny lens of 90s Nu-Disco and that makes me happy”.
The video for ‘Flying’ directed by Michael Sloane is somehow simultaneously elegant and drunkenly raucous, appropriately sucking you into their own little 90s universe. With their fourth studio album on the horizon, the band have decided to experiment with this ‘nu-disco sound’ showing a completely different side to their previous releases.
Last Dinosaurs have spent the past year traversing the globe performing at sell out headline shows and picking up additional fans in the U.S.A, South America, SE Asia, Spain, U.K, Germany and the Netherlands. At home in Australia packed headline rooms and festivals such as Splendour In The Grass and Laneway.
FLYING is out now through Ditto Music.

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
