Alabaster DePlume 
“Peach”
Debt Records
28th Sept 2015

A peach is a sweet and soft and good thing with a stone in the middle, and this is an album about being a person. Smartphones, analogue tape, valve microphones, computers, group games and a grand banquet were used to create this collection of songs, tunes and monologues, that use a series of contradictions to talk about being alive. 

Long-term collaborators John Ellis (piano) and Paddy Steer (percussion, bass, lapsteel, synth) join Angus Fairbairn (vocal, tenor sax) along with eleven other musicians and nearly a hundred other voices in presenting sounds likened to Ethiopian jazz and Japanese folk music. Scripts and vocal delivery evoke Ivor Cutler, Emo Philips and Leonard Cohen, for this combination of theatre, live-captured music, songs, humour and philosophy.

It is a unique collection, made by unusual means designed around the artistry and conveyance of its many contributors. Created over three years in London and Manchester, it’ll be celebrated in those two towns on the dates below, following its vinyl and digital release on Manchester label Debt Records, on 28th September 2015.

A composer, musician and performer, Alabaster DePlume (Angus Fairbairn) has toured northern Europe, appeared on UK national radio and developed theatre for Bram Stoker Festival in Dublin. His many combined arts projects are based around music, and personal inclusion. In this, his third album, he has employed as many voices as he can, in conveying a method of survival he’s been taught, he says, by everyone he’s met.

Hope grows naturally, like a
dandelion between the bricks.
I feel good…

1000 KINGS - Fullfillment House (STW Premiere)

If it’s a sign, why not embrace it?
Opportunities, can’t always chase ‘em
From this point on, I gotta face reality

Nothing’s for sure, no one is special
It ain’t about you, though you got potential
We need a cure, our ego is simply over-done

This rehab is so irritating
Life itself intoxicates me 
I’m out of ways to ease the pain
That I, myself, make

So If you wanna make it happen, OK
There’s no alternative, you gotta change your ways
Don’t even think about it, it’s only a phase
When the water gets too deep and you can’t stay
The shore ain’t that far

Adrenaline, don’t take it from me
Body and soul, can’t live without it
Can’t skip all that noise, I’m destructed 
By my messy thoughts

Therapy is so frustrating 
But I’m the one who let the toxic in
It's hard to tell what’s better
when you only know one lane

So If you wanna make it happen, OK...

Can’t tell right from wrong, shit is too subjective 
Life of excess is a matter of perspective
Why do we need all these extra stuff in our mouths?

Fear of missing out, that’s why we’re blurry
I want a big house, I’m in a hurry
Take a deep breath, swallow the pride that’s in your throat

Forget about the Instant pleasures
Now is not the time to measure (things
If we treat ourselves like treasure
We could heal

Mac & Party 'Zandale/Kiss to Kiss' New Afro7 single SNIPPETS

Lively, upbeat drums hit immediately in this jazz heavy rework of Simmonds' forthcoming single 'King' from Ebi Soda. Dreamy brass stretches luxuriously around the tune, matched by a stunning piano melody, leaving the drums and vocals battling it out with power and intensity.

Ian Simmonds is back with the first track from his stunning upcoming EP ‘King’ which features 6 tracks including an extended version of ‘King’ alongside 3 reworks from DJ Rocca, Number and Ebi Soda, and the final track ‘Women’. This collaboration between Simmonds and the Ekonda Women came about in the late 1990s when releasing music as Juryman for crammed discs, Ian met Vincent Kenis who had just returned from the Kongo with hours of field recordings including several hours of the Ekonda women, recorded in the Bikoro district of Kinshasa. Finished off lovingly with the stunning cover painting by welsh artist Tony Griffin.

Ian asked if he could hear what he had recorded and instantly fell in love with what he heard. ‘King’ is a big collaborative project full of power and passion, finished off lovingly with the stunning cover painting by welsh artist Tony Griffin.  He released his 15th studio album ‘All That’s Left’ earlier this year on Pussyfoot Records

King

King (Ebi Soda Rework)

Kit Sebastian are back with a special stand- alone 7” release that presents an appetising taster of what is to follow from their much-anticipated sophomore album.

After losing themselves in the magic of the French countryside to record, the band have delivered two gems that we initially thought were a soupçon of the said new album. In fact, though recorded during the same sessions, they felt these tracks were best served up as an aperitif to the album.

Francis Lai, Vladimir Cosma, Fikret Kızılok, Jane Birkin, and Selda Bağcan all served as inspirations during the recording sessions. Though their idols can be heard in ‘Ennui’ & ‘Abandoned’, the fusion of Anatolian Psychedelia, Brazilian Tropicalia, 60’s European pop and psych-folk vibes result in a sound that is drenched in their unique signature style and can only come from Kit Sebastian. The beautiful, heartfelt, longing vocals on both ‘Ennui’ & ‘Abandoned’’, makes it hard for the listener to resist falling in love with the world of Kit Sebastian and they leave the heart longing even more for their next longplayer to drop.
