New York City-based electronica and rock duo Dangerous Muse formed when Mike Furey and Tom Napack met as students at Fordham University. Furey, a singer-songwriter trained in piano, wanted to experiment with a more electronic sound, and Napack, a musician-programmer, was looking to collaborate with a lyricist. The two's first recording, The Rejection (2005), caught the attention of legendary record mogul Seymour Stein, who offered the duo a demo deal with Sire Records and facilitated their signing to Cordless Recordings, a digital imprint of Warner Music Group. Soon after, the duo signed with former Warner Bros. Records Senior Executive, Craig Kostich of Operational Art, for management.
Since its initial success, Dangerous Muse has released several additional singles, including "Give Me Danger," "Fame Kills," and "Take Control." The duo is currently in the final stages of preparing its debut album, also titled Take Control, for release on the Scarce Goods label. To introduce the album, the group released the song "I Want It All," produced by Bloodshy & Avant and accompanied by a music video directed by visual artist Greko Sklavounos. Producers on the album include Bloodshy & Avant (Britney, Madonna, Miike Snow), recording artist Esthero (making her production debut), Josh Harris (The Killers, Seal), Ted Ottaviano (Book of Love), and David Siskovic (Justin Timberlake, Cut Copy, Gwen Stefani, Goldfrapp). Look for this hotly anticipated record to drop very, very soon.
