Big Data (aka producer Alan Wilkis) is dropping a new album, 2.0, to follow-up his 2013 EP 1.0. Besides being the first LP in a discography that's sure to be most-sortable of all-time, the new disc will have features from the likes of Rivers Cuomo (Weezer), Kimbra, Twin Shadow, and more.
The first single, "Snowed In," features Cuomo on vocals. Check it out below:
Big Data is best known for the 2013 single "Dangerous," which hit No. 1 on the Billboard alternative songs chart. Here's the tracklist for 2.0, which will be released on March 24 via Warner Brothers (via Pitchfork):

02. Dangerous [ft. Joywave]
03. Clean [ft. Jamie Lidell]
04. The Glow [ft. Kimbra]
05. Snowed In [ft. Rivers Cuomo]
06. Big Dater
07. Automatic [ft. Jenn Wasner]
08. Get Some Freedom [ft. Dragonette]
09. Sick For Me [ft. Bear Hands]
10. Perfect Holiday [ft. Twin Shadow]
Besides his new Weezer record, Everything Will Be Alright In The End, Cuomo has been staying busy producing a FOX pilot based on his life.
DeTour is "the story of a 30-something rock star who, unable to rationalize his success and worried that he may not have the tools to repeat it, walks away from the spotlight at the height of his fame in an effort to rediscover the parts of his life he missed while he way busy becoming a massive success."
After Weezer's multi-platinum debut album in 1994, Cuomo attended Harvard to study English, where he continued to study over the next 11 years in between Weezer's albums and tours.
Songs such as "El Scorcho" and "Pink Triangle" were born from that experience, and we can add a new television pilot to that list.
