From Floatie's debut album "Voyage Out" - http://www.explodinginsoundrecords.com/products/692228-floatie-voyage-out

Floatie - Castleman

The original "If Teardrops Were Diamonds" is a song by Dwight Yoakam that features Willie Nelson. Covering others' songs reflects the long-standing tradition of storytelling in Country music, and the desire to take the music to new places, while at the same time preserving the craft, is just as embedded in that tradition. On "Stardust & Hurt", Larry Wish uses synths, processed electric guitars, drum machines, and his dramatic, baritone voice to bring a cartoonish landscape to his favorite Country songs, while honoring the shining beauty and sacred emotion of each one.

Stardust & Hurt

If Teardrops Were Diamonds

Larry Wish - "If Teardrops Were Diamonds"

Extinction! is a 12 minute comic book suite of beats; a collage of pop culture staged as the soundtrack for the dance party at the dawn of the apocalypse! 

The good guys are fighting for the future of existence itself: Greta Thunberg:  our hero; Kurt Vonnegut:  the prophet; and Marvin Gaye: the voice of love - or the muse of distraction???? Gotham crumbles as it's people are lulled into a self-indulgent stupor by the Spirit of Consumerism-Incarnate. Will our heroes' songs awaken the people to overcome the evils of climate change, classism, and war - or is the fate of the world doomed? 
Find out in Safe Jazz's new mixtape: Extinction!

Juxtaposing sounds of horror, protest, and pop, this suite of music came together over the course of 3 weeks, using samples chopped from top 40s hits, blockbuster movies, and viral videos. The main instruments were a Yamaha DD65 drum machine from Goodwill, a half broken MicroKorgXL synth, and a Korg CR-4 track cassette recorder and multi-effects unit (recently deceased). Extinction! is the first installment of Safe Jazz's "Frozen Pizza" collection: quick beats made with cheap ingredients, cooked up in short order for an easy listening snack.
