The Strokes' Julian Casablancas posts first solo song online

The Strokes' Julian Casablancas has posted a new solo song, '11th Dimension', on his official MySpace page, Myspace.com/juliancasablancas.

The track will be released as a single on November 2 following the release of the frontman's debut solo album, 'Phrazes For The Young', released on October 19.

Speaking to NME.COM previously about his songwriting process, Casablancas said: "I write stuff on a generic keyboard that has an organ or electric piano sound. Or on a guitar, but then, as I was building the song, if I thought it should be more like a whistling sound, with a keyboard and a laptop, it's easy to make that particular melody anything you want.

"I wasn't really acquiring any old, cool gear [to make the album], it was working with friends and engineers who had programs that could find any sound your heart desired!"

Julain Casblancas has said that he plans to play UK live dates soonThe Strokes man made his solo live debut in Tokyo last month.
