Known for their 2008 hit “Hold On” and Moby, MGMT and Cut Copy remixes, critically-heralded Brooklyn duo Holy Ghost! features electro magicians Nick Millhiser and Alex Frankel. Protégées of Tim Goldsworthy and James Murphy (founders of DFA Records), Holy Ghost! bring their melodic, throwback style and love for old-school synthesizers to their infectious new single, “I Will Come Back,” out on Green Label Sound.  Friends since childhood, the pair met in second grade and grew up just blocks apart on New York City’s Upper West Side. Frankel’s father was a long-time USA Today crime reporter who used to bring him along to mafia hangouts, while Millhiser’s parents developed real estate and held down various other posts. “When I was born, my dad was an audio engineer for ABC Sports,” he says, “and he also had his own barge ship in France.”  In high school Frankel played keyboards and Millhiser played drums in rap act Automato, which performed everywhere from CBGB to Coney Island High. As seniors they signed to Capital Records. Soon thereafter, they met producers Goldsworthy and Murphy during the making of Automato’s 2004 self-titled debut album, which The Guardian called: “The first essential hip hop album of the year.”  Millhiser and Frankel add that the collaboration indulges their love for analog sounds and passions for old-time Roland organs and Wurlitzer electronic pianos. “We’re big gearheads, and have been since we were in high school,” Frankel says. “We make our music before our lyrics, and we usually start with sound and drums. When we’re both nodding our heads, it’s like, ‘Now, let’s make it into a song.’”
