There have been many odes to dancing in pop music. I’m In The Mood For Dancing by The Nolans, Dancing Queen by Abba, Dancing In The Moonlight by Toploader – all essentials in the tacky wedding DJ’s box of delights. Now we’ll add another; Solo Dancing by Indiana. However it’s cut from a very different cloth to that of the abovementioned songs, for Solo Dancing comes from the beating heart of darkness. This is not the wrist-slashing-in-despair-emo path of darkness though, but the cathartic black joy that can be derived from the sweet smokey throb of monstrous disco-synths and Indiana’s seductive vocal.
Breaking More Waves has been a long standing supporter of Indiana since 2012 and we’re pleased to see what the record industry would call a bit of traction for her at the moment, with Solo Dancing being featured as the Hottest Record In The World on BBC Radio 1 just a few moments ago, a gig this Thursday at new venue Oslo in Hackney Central, London plus she will be out supporting Bipolar Sunshine in March and April. There's also a forthcoming remix from Joe Goddard of this song.
We look forward to the debut album that should finally arrive in the next six months.
Indiana - Solo Dancing
