Django Django travel 'Off Planet' on next album

Django Django will release Off Planet, an album in four parts, on June 16 via Because Music. The fifth full-length studio album from the UK quartet was conceptualized by Django Django co-founder Dave Maclean.

Released in four parts, each as a separate “planet”, Off Planet features Self Esteem, Jack Peñate, Stealing Sheep and Toya Delazy. Off Planet Part 1, which features the first five tracks from the full length-album, is available to stream here.

“Complete Me” ft. Self Esteem, the lead single from the album’s Part 1 spotlights Rebecca Lucy Taylor. A long associate of the band, Self Esteem released her first EP on Dave’s Kick + Clap label, appearing on 2018’s Marble Skies and supporting the Djangos on tour.

Of the song, Maclean says, “The instrumental for Complete Me was made sometime in 2020 or 21 when the world was in lockdown and I was making music in my garden shed studio. It was a dance track that I didn’t really know what to do with. I sent it to Rebecca and she loved the vibe of it and really quickly came up with some vocal ideas that kind of stuck straight away and locked well with the track. The production was inspired by a lot of 90s breakbeat house and hip-house records that I’ve always been really into and loved Djing with over the years.”
