专辑介绍：
猫头鹰之城乐队是一支来自美国明尼苏达州的电子音乐乐队。乐队仅由一名成员组成：亚当·扬（Adam·Young）。亚当·扬于2007年创建了该乐队，并且担任乐队的主唱、编曲、创作、混音合成工作。猫头鹰之城乐队的音乐飘逸、灵动，既有梦幻的神秘色彩，又有电子音乐的动感节奏。乐队的主打歌曲《Fireflies》一经推出就登上了各大音乐电台以及音乐榜单的冠军宝座。受到乐迷的热烈追捧。
猫头鹰之城乐队的音乐风格是当下最为流行、时尚的电子混音音乐，但不同于传统的电子舞曲所营造出的喧闹、躁动不安的动感音乐氛围，猫头鹰之城乐队的电子音乐通过使用简单的电子乐器，摒弃了电子舞曲的乐器混杂使用，通过亚当·扬空灵飘逸的嗓音和精致的和声，从而把广大乐迷带入了充满梦幻色彩并且活泼、跃动的音乐奇异王国。猫头鹰之城乐队的音乐风格在很大程度上受到了Disco 和欧洲电子音乐（European Electronic Music）的影响。同时，在乐队的音乐中还能听到合成器流行音乐（SynthPop）和新浪潮音乐（New Wave Music）的众多元素。
Owl City have been busy over the past few months working towards their new release The Midsummer Station. Locked and loaded for release August 20, the band have stepped out of their comfort zone to bring fans the most diverse range of tracks that still bear the Owl City vibe.
The synth-pop/popcore, whatever you like to call it, group rose to international attention following the track Fireflies, a song that has become engraved in our memories through literally countless radio plays and almost as many covers.
Earlier this year, Owl City dropped the Shooting Star EP to cleanse the palette of fans prior to the full-length, the result of which saw #OCTMS (Owl City: The Midsummer Station) trend worldwide on Twitter. For the LP, frontman Adam Young sought the wisdom of producers and other artists they have never worked with before. For Shooting Star – the first song released and one of the focus tracks on the album – Young looked to friend Matt Thiessen (Relient K), Stargate (Rihanna, Wiz Khalifa) and Robopop (Maroon 5), and for Gold – another tune set to explode airwaves – he employed the skills of Josh Crosby, Nate Campany, and Emily Wright (Dr. Luke’s engineer).
A couple of collabs can be found on the release too, including Blink 182′s Mark Hoppus and none other than fellow pop champion Carly Rea Jepsen. Young commented on working with the Call Me Maybe hit maker: “I love Carly’s song Call Me Maybe. I remember hearing it for the first time and immediately became a huge fan of hers – it is absolutely contagious. A bit later, I actually found out that she had known of my music for a while and even went to a couple of shows of mine in Vancouver so I definitely knew I wanted to collaborate with her.”
The connection between the two is undeniable if you check out the single Good Times on which the two team up. The 11-track release will document Young’s mindstate and experiences after the massive success of their previous release Ocean Eyes with unmistakable growth and progression, still with the Owl City Synthy flavour.
