"MG 333" by Richard Swift from 'Walt Wolfman'. Originally released 10/18/11 on Secretly Canadian

About a year ago, Richard Swift horrifically fractured his left ring finger. For a moment his nimble guitar and piano work flashed before his eyes. Doctors were saying things like "movement and feeling could eventually return," etc, etc. Certainly, not even a little blip on the sadness radar of humanity, but a massive bummer for a fellow who has carved out a niche as one of independent music's sought after session players and producers -- and especially in relation to the astounding Richard Swift solo output we all know and love.
So, it's with a great, collective sigh of relief that he's back to churning out new material like "Whitman." It's chugging, chiming and triumphant, featuring Swift's always-endearing falsetto and casual call-and-response lyricism. "I've got my own Whitman...Farewell, farewell/I hope it did you good/To say the things/My father never could," Swift pines. The song is a cryptic salute to Walt Whitman, whose American lineage of primal, urgent art can be traced to include Kerouac and Dylan, Bo Diddley and Beefheart -- right on through to modern outsider-pop wunderkinds like Swift. And according to Swift, "Whitman" is a nice taste of what we can expect from his next longform recording.
The same can be said for the remainder of the Walt Wolfman EP. Conceived in the same spirit that gave us 2008's cult favorite Ground Trouble Jaw EP, these blown-out, basement R&B rippers are not for the faint of heart. They require movement and sweat, dancing with a cocktail glass in your grip until your shoes are soaked in booze. Highlight of the set, "MG 333," is a raw and ghostly trance, a blast of kinetic energy and jazz cigarette smoke. Meanwhile, the neu-vintage jive of "Drakula (Hey Man)" and "Zombie Boogie" pack a timelessness that transcends their seasonal titles. And yeah, that's Swift himself on rapid-fire drums across the whole damn set. Shit, he might have been fine without that measly finger after all.

Last year we stopped in one morning at Mark Ronson's studio in London to record a song live and have a cup of tea. We dared to record this Otis Redding classic. It ain't broke, and we could never fix it, but it was fun so we did it for fun. For the nerds, I played Mark's electric sitar and this was all analog #dadwave

Beck, "I Only Have Eyes for You"

Fire Records are excited to announce the worldwide signing of hotly tipped New Zealand band Opossom. The brainchild of Kody Nielson, formerly of acclaimed "trouble gum art punks" The Mint Chicks , Opossom have produced the exceptional and captivating album 'Electric Hawaii', which is due for release in August.

The first single from the album will be "Blue Meanies", a synth-led, bass heavy psych odyssey with a surreal, semi-animated video shot amid beautiful woodland scenery, featuring fantastical creatures, adventurous hikers and golden Buddhas with laser beam eyes. The b-side features Kody's slow-fi, dub remix of the track.

Opossom - Blue Meanies

This is a song on "Feeling Hands" performed By M2 (still buy it on iTunes), plus Tom on upright bass, and Monty Valier (the engineer) lays down some really subtle organ/synth pads. Listen for these. Brian Archinal, a mfa percussionist who studied with the great Steven Shick plays the timpani drums... really gets into a hectic wipe-out mode... My guitar was recorded with 3 different amps so I got a lot of different tones... listen for my loop improvisation layering in the middle (i used a roland 20xl for the loops) my loving/lovable twin, Jonathan laid down some killer drums as he always does, he was referencing motown but as you can hear... something else very original happened... J-rad of M2 tuning out... XOXO
