# WhoMadeWho and Tomas Barfod join for a Beach Party Below the Cherry Moon All the pieces start falling into place now: with their new album ***Brighter*** coming up in March, Danish **WhoMadeWho** also share what their individual members have been up to lately musicwise. We already told you about [**Thomas Høffding**'s recent collaboration with **Terranova**][1] and **Bon Homme**'s solo album and [EB festival gig][2]; now **Tomas Barfod** (*pictured to the right*) shared the first track off his upcoming new solo album. The WhoMadeWho drummer's longplayer ***Salton Sea*** will be released on **Friends of Friends** records in May, preceded by the ***Broken Glass*** EP, which is due on March 20th as a 12″ and digital download. The first track -- b-side 'Beach Party' -- was made public by the label just yesterday, expect the a-side 'Broken Glass' alongside remixes by **[Jacob Korn][3]** and his label colleague **Shlomo** with the EP release. But let's talk WhoMadeWho again: following up on [last year's mini-album][4] and the [first track][5] (and [remix][6]) 'Inside World' off their upcoming album ***Brighter*** (out on **Kompakt** on March 5th) comes 'Below the Cherry Moon', a groovy six minute disco track, available for a free download. Of course we had to think of **Prince**'s [1986 movie 'Under the Cherry Moon'][7]{: target="_blank"}, although we don't know if their's a referance intended at all. WhoMadeWho will be touring Europe in Spring 2012, ask them all about it at one of [the tour stops][8]{: target="_blank"}. *The author on Twitter*: [Follow @wwwacht][9]{: .twitter-follow-button} !function(d,s,id)\{var js,fjs=d.getElementsByTagName(s)\[0\];if(!d.getElementById(id))\{js=d.createElement(s);js.id=id;js.src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js";fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js,fjs);}}(document,"script","twitter-wjs"); [1]: http://www.electronicbeats.net/music/news/terranova-question-mark-video "EBnet: Terranova Question Mark Video" [2]: http://www.electronicbeats.net/eb-reviews/electronic-beats-festival-vienna-2011-in-review "EBnet: Electronic Beats Festival Vienna 2011 in review" [3]: http://www.electronicbeats.net/category/tags/Jacob-Korn "EBnet: Jacob Korn" [4]: http://www.electronicbeats.net/features/news/kompakt-go-knee-deep-with-whomadewho "EBnet: Kompakt go Knee-Deep with WhoMadeWho" [5]: http://www.electronicbeats.net/music/news/whomadewhos-inside-world "EBnet: WhoMadeWho's Inside World" [6]: http://www.electronicbeats.net/music/news/digitalism-remix-whomadewho "EBnet: Digitalism remix WhoMadeWho's Inside World" [7]: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HhGUh_pNMDM [8]: http://www.electronicbeats.net/event/whomadewho [9]: https://twitter.com/wwwacht
