This week, a little band from Spain named Delorean, announced their fifth album, Muzik.

Hailing from the Basque region of Spain, Delorean got their start in 2000 and released their self-titled debut album in 2004. It wasn't until 2010's Subiza, their first released internationally, that they began receiving widespread acclaim, including a Best New Music tag from Pitchfork.

Their latest album was produced by Pional, a fellow Spaniard who frequently works with John Talabot, and sees them holding to their Balearic house-influenced synthpop. The announcement of Muzik was accompanied by the album's title track.
