I first heard Holy Ghost! about three years ago, when they were opening for LCD Soundsystem; since then, the duo of Nick Millhiser and Alex Frankel have released a solid album and some great singles that embraced a sort of disco revival (much like their labelmates Hercules And Love Affair). Now the band has a new song and video, humbly titled “Dumb Disco Ideas.” On Twitter, the song was cleverly announced in the wake of some other recent disco ideas, but it’s more than just a well-timed joke; rather, Holy Ghost! have made something very impressive. The video contains a single high-speed shot taken overnight on a Brooklyn rooftop and a modest light show to go along with it. But hold on — because this is all tougher than it looks: The lights had to have been programmed to very slow speeds so once everything is sped up to show the night passing into day, it locks into sync perfectly with the music. It’s much like the song, which right from the title advertises itself as something simplistic or unfinished (it sounds like the placeholder-title for some early demo) and instead turns Holy Ghost!’s sound inside out over an amazingly detailed eight minutes that still feels too short. Watch the video below and look for their new album later this year.

Dynamics (still no release date) will be out later this year on DFA
