Track of the day: The Swedish Railway Orchestra- 'Once Upon a Time in Palestine'

Dublin electronic project The Swedish Railway Orchestra have today released a new single titled 'Once Upon a Time in Palestine'  complete with a visualiser.

The track takes influence from LCD Soundsystem but plays with a much darker theme than the usual woes of James Murphy's affluent New Yorkers.

"Once Upon a Time in Palestine is'  written, performed and produced by Rob Smith of The Swedish Railway Orchestra and mastered by Daniel O'Connell at O'Connell Mastering in Barcelona, Spain. It's a beat orientated dance track but has a slight existential edge to it, not normally found in the genre.

The accompanying visualiser adds the appropriate aesthetics to this feeling of alienation- with a bug-eye shot of Ashton Quay and Workman's on given night inter spliced with archival footage of Palestine.

The single is the latest off the group's upcoming album Once Upon A Time..., which is billed for release on Thursday March 7. The Galway based Blowtorch records will be issuing Once Upon a Time... on "12 violet vinyl record with gatefold sleeve. This limited edition vinyl is available for pre-order here.

The Swedish Railway Orchestra will be hosting an album launch event at An Taibhdhearc theatre in Galway city centre on March 7 at 7.30pm.

Rob Smith, the project creator, will be playing out the album in full before spinning an eclectic mix of tunes until late and singing copies of the album. this will be a free event.

For those who can't make it out West to the album launch however, here is the visualiser for 'Once Upon a Time in Palestine':
