Operators, the post-punk/electro project featuring Dan Boeckner of Wolf Parade, is about to release its supremely awesome debut album Blue Wave on April 1st. The album is a tasty slice of electro-pop New Order-ish heaven -- check out the first single, "Cold Light" featuring some very Hooky-esque bass grooves:
Operators shared the album's exquisite title track today. Enjoy below:
Blue Wave will be released on CD, DAD, and white vinyl on April 1st. Pre-order through iTunes, Amazon, or the band's webstore.
