Music For Cars EP

Music for Cars is the third extended play by English band the 1975, released on 4 March 2013 by Dirty Hit, Polydor Records and Vagrant Records. Development of the record began after the band completed their eponymous debut album. Working with producer Mike Crossey, the 1975 created "Chocolate" during the album's recording sessions before building the other tracks of the EP around the song. The band sought to create a cohesive concept for the record, primarily producing the remaining four songs by themselves in the bedroom of singer Healy at Rose Cottage in Cheshire. An electronic, ambient and experimental record, Music for Cars is composed of atmospheric songs containing a cinematic sound. The EP also incorporates elements of pop, rock, synth-pop, funk and R&B, among other genres. Upon release, the record received positive reviews from music critics, who praised the EP's exploration of electronic music and its balance of pop and atmospherics songs. Prior to the record's debut, the 1975 released "Head.Cars.Bending" and the single "Chocolate". The song was a sleeper hit, representing the band's commercial breakthrough when it became a radio staple in 2013.
