Not much is known about Ghostland Observatory. They don’t jump at the opportunity to elaborate on current or past projects, and they don’t post many videos on YouTube. All that is known of this Austin based duo is that they create a blend of music that sounds like a cross between Daft Punk, Queen, and Michael Jackson. Ask them what it sounds like, and they’ll say ‘Like a Robot Making Love to a Tree.’ Now that’s a mental image fit for A&E.

See them in concert, and they act the part of their influences. Singer Aaron Behren wears the tightest white pants West of 1978 and synth virtuoso Thomas Turner wears a full body cape and says little to the audience. Aaron is the crowd motivator, running around the stage and screaming into the mic for a full two and a half hours.

Now that they have just released their third album Robotique Mystique, their sets have become noticeably longer too, which means your ears will be ringing for an extra day or two following the show.

This track Midnight Voyage comes off their first album Paparazzi Lighting
