Extracurricular activities: Dean & Britta & Cheval Sombre

Cheval Sombre (facebook), who's first, self-titled, album was released on Dean & Britta's Double Feature Records is about to release his second album, Mad Love. The album comes out in November on lovely indie Sonic Cathedral and again has substantial contributions from Dean & Britta, as well as members of MGMT, and is co-produced by Sonic Boom.

Sonic Cathedral's blog post about the release
NME gave the album its Radar Tip of the Day.

Great set of photos of Cheval Sombre with Dean & Britta and Sonic Boom at Death By Audio in Brooklyn in 2009 (sadly with embedding disabled so you'll have to head over to flickr to see them all).
