Today, Chromeo released “Don’t Turn the Lights On”, the second single off their upcoming album, Business Casual. The track is exactly what we would expect from Chromeo – 80′s funk, synthpop and electro – but not in the least bit disappointing. In fact, it’s just what we needed to get psyched for the release of Business Casual on September 14th. Chromeo’s summer tour will make a stop at NYC’s Bowery Ballroom on July 29. They will also be performing at Lovebox in London on July 18.

This summer, Chromeo will embark on a 23-stop tour in support of their upcoming album, Business Casual, slated for release on August 17. Mixed by longtime Chromeo collaborator Phillipe Zdar, their third studio album will carry on their trademark funky synth-pop jams with “sentimental-yet-electronic pop music”. The album’s ten tracks include “Night by Night”, which was released through Green Label Sound last fall.

The “Business Casual Tour”, presented by Green Label Sound, will also feature New York’s own Holy Ghost!, fresh off a four-night stint at Terminal 5 with LCD Soundsystem. The tour starts on July 26 in Washington DC and will hit NYC’s Bowery Ballroom on July 29 - tickets go on sale this Wednesday, May 26. Check out Chromeo’s video for “Night by Night” after the jump, then head to the Green Label Sound website for a free download of the song, along with remixes by Skream and Siriusmo.
