I am pleased to announce that another Lupe track has hit the net this week. This time it is a track called “Solar Midnite” which will be featured on the “New Moon” soundtrack.  Read below for more information, directly from Lupe, on how the rock influenced track came about and one of the funniest ALL CAPS comments I’ve read all week. Click here to download.

“Solar Midnite is my first commercial release that I actually produced as well as wrote. The New Moon team asked me if I could do a song specifically for the film. They invited me to an early screening of the unfinished film from which I pulled different elements that I thought would translate into a great song. I pulled in vocalist and bassist Graham Burris and acclaimed musician Matt Nelson to help fill it out my vision musically and “joila” Solar Midnite was born. The song basically deals with the chaotic love story that takes place between the characters. It’s more on the rock side of my musical catalog and comes straight from my die hard fanhood of Red Hot Chili Peppers and Anthony Keidis, one of my FAVORITE RAPPERS.”
