With their lustrous “Full Moon” EP last fall, Mansions on the Moon immediately stamped themselves as electro-pop perfectionists, mining ’80s gold in tastefully produced songs that didn’t fall prey to the cheesy exaggeration of many making that kind of music. The L.A. quartet – singer-guitarist Ted Wendler, keyboardist Ben Hazlegrove, drummer Lane Shaw and bassist Jeff Maccora – have collaborated N*E*R*D, produced for Mac Miller and toured with Wiz Khalifa and Cherub. And finally they have a their full-length debut ready for release in October. The first single “Don’t Tell” is a bright-and-breezy dance number all dressed up in MOTM’s pristine production, a nice bite off the Bee Gees’ apple.
