Dev Hynes is an international man of mystery and the busiest musician on the planet.

As if his work as Lightspeed Champion and Test Icicles or co-writing with Theophilus London and Solange Knowles wasn't enough, Hynes is launching a new project: Blood Orange.

Blood Orange finds Hynes delving deeper into '80s American musical culture, crossing elements of melancholy synthetic pop with a twangy noir, composing songs exploring the harsh realities of romantic pursuits: longing, uspicion, jealousy, self-doubt and loneliness, to name but a few.
