Tehran's two-track response

The album promises to be a genre-defying journey, drawing from club culture, ambient soundscapes, and world music influences.

In a press release, Green hinted at a sense of finality around the project.

'It's probably the last go-around the track in this format,' he said.

'I don't know what that will look like just yet, but it's really about me redefining how to be a musician from here.'

The production has been designed in collaboration with Pierre Claude, whose visual work has helped shape live performances for the likes of Air, Gesaffelstein, Phoenix, and Caroline Polachek.

The tour is scheduled to kick off on November 5 at Emo's in Austin, Texas, before heading to venues in major cities including Los Angeles, Toronto, and Chicago.
