Kevin Parker (of Tame Impala) is working on new music

It's been revealed that Tame Impala's very own Kevin Parker is working on new music! At the yearly APRA awards he said - "I don’t really know what it is until it’s finished, like I don’t know if it’s for Tame Impala or if it’s something I’m going to write for someone else, because I’ve been wanting to do that a lot more.

I think after a long tour and after an album, your brain feels like it wants to relax but at the same time making music for me is something that comes kind of naturally. Just like a brain process. I’m trying not to work on stuff but there are always things to do. I always manage to keep myself busy."

You can listen to his very first demo of "Feels Like We Only Go Backwards" below

Tame Impala's Kevin Parker joins forces with Mark Ronson on new track 'Daffodils'

Combining Tame Impala frontman Kevin Parker's eery falsetto vocals with producer Mark Ronson's retro funky stylings, 'Daffodils' is the second track to be premiered to the public from his new album 'Uptown Funk'. Aired on Zane Lowe's BBC Radio 1 slot, the track evolves in layers with a laid-back funk groove before reaching a state of futuristic synthesiser chaos.

The first track Ronson put out to the public was the album-titled 'Uptown Funk' that featured Bruno Mars and has already been hailed as one of the highlights of the 2014 popular music world. The album will feature other collaborations including Hudson Mohawke and Miike Snow's Andrew Wyatt.
