“The original version of the track came out on This Charming Mixtape, which was written during a different time in my career,” said London about the song. “When the opportunity to release a track with Green Label Sound presented itself, I immediately knew that this was the song. I already had in my mind what I wanted to do to it.”
“I visited a town once with someone, and it was great and amazing–kids and dogs outside in the sun,” explains London. “‘Humdrum Town’ is about coming back to the town without that person and having the opposite experience. It’s gloomy, it’s dark in a humdrum kind of way.”
Recorded at Brooklyn’s Casa Nova studios, mixed by Alexander Aldi (Passion Pit, White Rabbits, Harlem Shakes) and mastered by Joe Lambert (Wyclef Jean, Animal Collective, Gang Gang Dance), “Humdrum Town” tells an elliptical tale of love and loss–all dark chords, basic beats, and a ghostly melody with London’s signature vocals at the fore.
Green Label Sund, supported by Mtn Dew, is a music label designed to elevate and empower independent artists. To date, GLS has released tracks and videos by Matt and Kim, Chromeo, Holy Ghost!, The Cool Kids, Solid Gold, Flosstradamus and U-N-I.
