Ten years after the cult debut, producer, DJ and film composer Phil Kieran returns under his Le Carousel alias with a dazzling follow-up album. The Humans Will Destroy Us is out on the 13th March 2026 . It blends shoegaze inspired electronics, lush analogue textures and dreamy synthscapes into a rich, epic journey along a winding dancefloor that timelessly connects the club with the cosmos. There's an intentional cinematic progression through the album. It opens with radio friendly avant-pop tracks Light the Flare and The Good One whose sparkling synths, gauzy vocals and hypnotic languid beats are reminiscent of Andrew Weatherall remixes of Primal Scream. At the heart of the record sits "We're All Gonna Hurt," a slow-burning standout that captures the essence of the project: soft edges against hard truths, rhythm as catharsis. Early releases of mixes by Hardway Bros and Curses have already begun favourites for discerning DJs . The album transcends into deeper beats that don't so much drive as breathe movement onto dancefloors- a Kosmische affair conjuring the spirit of acts like NEU! while "You're killing me inside" slow dances us to a cliffhanger.

Taken from upcoming album 'The Humans Will Destroy Us' from Le Carousel, out 13th March, 'The Good One' was the first track intentionally recorded almost 9 years ago for the album. It's a personal reminder to avoid toxicity and to seek out people who charge you up with positive energy, in other words - the good ones. Phil Kieran's spoken word is surrounded by the celestial voices of good ones Jolene O'Hara, Roisin Stewart and Jess Brien. Layered with Afro- beat drums, spacious swirling synths and echoing effects this track chugs its way from the cosmos on to the dancefloor with a Giorgio Moroder type sway and a Happy Mondays or Screamadelica like swagger.
