Hiatus Kaiyote - 'Telescope' (Official Audio) 

babe wake up new hiatus just dropped 😭

"Speaking on the track’s significance, Bender (bass) shares, “NASA has a website where you can type in your birthday and then it will tell you the most interesting thing that the Hubble telescope took a picture of on your birthday. And so each of the four verses is based on our four birthdays.” Bender’s heavenly object was Abell (2744); Simon’s the Einstein Ring; Nai’s the “Red Pearl on the face of Jupiter,” and Pez’s a nameless star that exploded with a light many times brighter than our sun. Musically, the song was triggered by Simon’s play with a patch from a 1980s-era synthesizer: Sequential Circuits’ Prophet 600."

Never been so hype for new hiatus drops, they’ve been teasing this new album so strategically

This band never fucking misses!!!

This is a damn masterpiece. The more you listen, the better it gets. My goodness...

Omg space is the place, sun ra 💕😭

Much love guys all the way from South Africa Johannesburg 🇿🇦 🔥🔥🔥

There's such a childlike joy to this one.

The Temptations, Sun Ra. What other references did I miss?

I love the specific astronomy-related references in the lyrics.

holy chills, the adlibs sound so good out of my right headphone 2:35

If aliens come into contact with humans, I hope that the first thing they experience is Hiatus Kaiyote

I'm an old man and they make me smile! What a beautiful group of musicians.

Can't wait for the Full Album to Release definitely picking up a physical copy.

This beat slaps wtf

The layering on this is out of this world

Down astronomically 🔥

The echoey distortion in the intro is amazing! And then it flips straight into the airtight soul sound! WOW!! Love to hear those spiritual, stream of consciousness Nai Palm lyrics too.

Excuse me, Earth. I'm going on an expedition listening to this one on repeat. ✨👋🏿💙🪐

I cannot stop playing this song 😩

This album is gonna be one of the major highlights of my summer, Ive been needing a special soundtrack to my summertime

Space Is The Place!!! Nice Sun-Ra shoutout! Can't wait for the new album!

Song is great- production layering is insane sheesh - peace from NZ 🤙👊

I've had tinnitus for many years and this song didn't change that but it's still a good song

This has been on repeat!! And it’s raining outside perfect spiritual blend for the night ❤️🙌🏾🔥🔥 THEY DID IT AGAIN, I HAVE NEVER SEEN SO MANY BACK TO BACK BANGERS SHEESHHH!😮😬🥶😁

This beat, the ethereal instrumentals, I love it all😭

Haha the "My Girl" sample halfway through is amazing!

is it kush or outer space?

Best of the 3 singles so far. Now I’m extra hyped!

Such an awesome song Hiatus K.!! And so many references to other awesome songs! I dunno, but I hear lyrical reference to Roy Orbison's My Girl, Sun Ra's Space is the place, and maybe A few of my favourite things?? I'm sure there's so many more! I hope it's not just me that hears this! 😅

This album is what I needed, and I didn't know about it, great !

The sound design in this is so good!!

You didn’t have to eat us up like this. 🔥🔥🔥

Currently stressing while trying to finish all my work before finals week, this is exactly what I needed. What a blessing

Listened to this under a milky night sky and it was absolutely perfect ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥✨🌟

The noises at the start sound like the Memory Conflux subregion in Five Pebbles. I wouldn’t put it past Hiatus Kaiyote to know about this game

Oh wow that ending is just heavenly. I expect nothing less from you beauties

U spoil us!!! Much Love from Las Vegas!!!

Love the Asian influences and nuances throughout💖

magic conjured within the cosmos. i'm awestruck. 🔭 i simply cannot get over how mind-bending the lyrics and production are.~ ♡

The first 4 seconds of this song is what earth sounds like from space.

Oh shit I’m still discovering you guys cuz I get hooked on the same 5 songs tbh. But now after replaying telescope for the 3rd time in a row I’m realizing at 8:55pm mts this video was posted 22hrs ago. And I had listened earlier today thinking it was out for a month..…. It’s Perfect timing you don’t understand especially because I been revisiting science and philosophy recently.. i fucking love this song cuz it’s jazzy n stimulates my brain and soul…THANK YOU🦋🌠💐💙💫

First St. Vincent, now my favorite cats here from neighboring country is about to release their latest album next month😆 It's going to be another masterpiece!

I got to hear you in the first 10 minutes after you dropped! Woo hoo. Love the vibe.

The drumer always blows my mind

I can't with y'all lol. My God, you guys just can't miss. Another beautiful banger. The love in your heart is the cheat code! HK for LIFE!!!

Omg the chords you all killin it!!! ❤❤❤ future sounds

Needed this dance therapy today. Hiatus gone do it for me every time 😤🤌🏾

In a rush to get ready for work. New HK joint dropped in my feed. Work can wait.

I live next to the Hubble Telescope in Baltimore Maryland. Love the message ❤

The best way that i can describe this sort of music is light and airy

Tengo mucho tiempo escuchándolos, chicos, son impresionantes, cómo me gusta Nai. ♥Saludos desde el Estado de México.

SO FUCKING GOOD AS ALWAYS !!!! can't wait for the whole album !!!!!!

素晴らしい楽曲！ありがとう！

Leave it to Nai Palm to get the numbers "2755" stuck in my head.

JAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAZZZZ 💙

Utterly life affirming. Inventive lyrics. Hammersmith Odeon. Come on London!!

Omg....no words just.....OMG!!!!!!!!!

LOVE YOU GUYS THANKS FOR CHANGING MY LIFE

oh yes I am so here for this 🙌🔭

yall never miss

Perry's aniversary and he gave us a gift. Amazing percussion!!!

HERE WE GO!!

I can't explain it but this one feels inspired by King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard? Maybe the "Telescope" chorus is just making me think of "Tezeta"

It's it kush? Or outer space? Space is tha Plaaaaceeee.

Glad I stayed up 😊😊😊😊

SwEET!!!

How can you not dig Hiatus Kaiyote....THIS is Dope!

Wow, I am just crying with joy! It's so great and reassuring. I happen to know the father of one of the band members through my work - and he put me onto Hiatus Kaiyote, which is more up my alley than he could even know. I'll have to let him know that I instantly became a huge fan after checking out these new songs. The production quality is excellent too here, with the drums fills swirling all around in surprising ways. Pre-ordered! I'm so excited to receive it and also to begin exploring their earlier releases until then.

Lovely song, the chords are amazing !

❤❤❤❤

I love it so much ! Votre musique me réchauffe le coeur, toujours. Merci ❤️

I was sure this album was going to be released on my birthday 4 26th . Did it get delayed or is Everett's many worlds interpretation true?

Great song. These guys just continue to impress!

The day just became more interesting.

💙💙💙💙
