Pre-order the album 'Aforger' out October 14th on LP/CD/DL here: http://phonofile.link/aforger

In a digital age where memories are mimicked by pixels and identity is as malleable as static, Douglas Dare’s new album Aforger questions the boundaries between reality and fiction. 

Inspired by recent events and revelations encountered in his life these songs depict Dare at his most vulnerable, whilst simultaneously reflecting our own obsession with reality and technology back at us.  

Aforger was mixed at the iconic Abbey Road Studios and produced by long-time collaborator Fabian Prynn. In the following conversation Douglas strips back the personal journeys and realisations which preceded its recording.

In a conversation with Douglas Dare on July 11th 2016:

The album title plays with the idea of a forger – someone creating imitations or copies, and reimagines them as the creator of something that’s no longer real. Prior to writing the record, I came out to my father and came out of a long relationship, both were hugely challenging for me and questioned my idea of identity and reality. These thoughts leaked out into the record and formed the core of Aforger. I was determined not to write a break-up album or repeat what I’d done before..

I grew up on quite an isolated farm in Dorset, surrounded by fields and not much besides. My mother taught piano from home and we didn’t have a computer, or the internet or mobile phones. In fact, my family still chooses not to use these things. It’s worlds apart from my life now in London where technology seems to dominate everything I do.

After finding out my boyfriend had been leading this double-life, I became obsessed with the question of what is real and George Orwell’s 1984 felt appropriate for me to re-read. Orwell explains this idea of reality control and Doublethink, and it struck a chord with me. The idea that truth can be steered or changed, and we might be able to believe two contradictory things at once. In my case, ignorance was my protection from the truth and ignorance really is bliss, until you’re no longer ignorant.

Binary talks about the idea that technology is allowing us to live on after we’re gone. A relative of mine whose parent passed away kept a picture of them on their phone as a background image. A friend saw this and asked ‘how can you have that there to constantly remind you of your loss?’ They replied, ‘no I have to, it shows me that they’re still here’. This resonated with me and I thought ‘okay, this is just an image to me but to them it’s more than a reminder or a reassurance, it’s a reality’. At the same time, I was finding myself haunted by the digital reminder of my ex-partner and wishing they would disappear. I had to realise that it’s all just pixels on a screen. 

I think New York can be thought of as this fabricated, magical place. I was there with my boyfriend after touring the U.S., but when I came back to London I discovered all these lies and began questioning everything. I even questioned whether New York actually happened or not. New York is a song that’s literally describing that very real feeling of not knowing who or what to believe any more – scary and magical at the same time. 

Lyrically I wanted to be as honest as possible. The album deals with so much dishonesty, so I felt the lyrics had to be the counterbalance. I was inspired by Björk’s album Vulnicura and how everything is almost awkward in its honesty. Like my first album, Aforger started as poetry, but I consciously tried to be less poetic. For instance, Oh Father is an example of complete unambiguity. It’s certainly the most personal song I’ve put out there, and the realisation that people may hear it makes me feel very vulnerable. That’s the most real feeling of all for me right now.

Black Arcade - Death Is Not A Lover

Brooklyn's Jeanines specialize in ultra-short bursts of energetic but melancholy minor-key pop. With influences that run deep into the most crucial tributaries of DIY pop — Messthethics, the Television Personalities, Marine Girls, early Pastels, Dolly Mixture — they've crafted a style that is as individual as it is just plain pleasurable. Alicia Jeanine's pure, unaffected voice muses wistfully on the illusions of time, while My Teenage Stride/Mick Trouble mastermind Jed Smith's frantic Motown-esque drumming and inventive bass playing provide a thrilling rhythmic foundation.

"Winter In The Dark" and a lovely, jaunty cover of The Siddeleys' "Falling Off Of My Feet Again" provide great insight into what Jeanines are about. 60s-meet-80s melodies combine with timeless guitar jangle in a way that recalls everything from The Aislers Set and Saturday Looks Good To Me to more recent DIY pop groups like Parsnip and Chook Race. Album opener "Either Way," "Hits The Bone" and "Where We Go" hearken back to some of the most intriguing bands of the C86/C88 era, when bands like Jesse Garon & The Desperadoes crafted perfect pop gems enlivened by the inspiration of punk.

Gorgeous songs like "Where I Stand," "Too Late" and "In This House" are windows into Alicia's lyrical style and inspiration. She expands: "I'm kind of obsessed with mortality and how weird the passage of time is so I think my lyrics reflect that. I definitely lean into that kind of melancholy state of mind when trying to think of lyrics, while trying to avoid cliches!" The marriage of the minor-key melodies and melancholic lyrics is powerful and make Alicia's songs all the more memorable, especially so on songs like "No Home," with its echoes of girl harmony post-punk groups like Grass Widow and Household.

Clearly, with 16 great songs included, there is a lot at work here on this standout debut album. Jeanines have been compared to such cult pop icons as Dear Nora, Black Tambourine, and more recent acts like Veronica Falls and Girl Ray, but their dark, modal melodies and pensive, philosophical lyrics, along with Smith's versatile but ever-economical musicality, ensure them a place of their own in today's crowded but boisterously healthy DIY pop scene.

"Once Known" the fourth single off of Looms' new LP, "The Way Up," out May 3rd via Good Eye Records. Pre-order on vinyl/pre-save here ~ smarturl.it/the-way-up

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After a summer tour in 2017 with Looms, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Sharif Mekawy came home to the end of a relationship. This heartbreak led to a month wherein he confined himself to a month of writing music on his roof.

Now, that time has gone on to inform Looms’ third full-length, The Way Up, out May 3rd via Good Eye Records. Joined by Harry Morris Jr. (guitar), Andy Murray (bass) and Harry Louis Cozza (drums), the ten-song album grapples with the life-consuming churn of lost love, “what ifs?” and rose-colored memories that warp over time.

Featuring a guest performance from guitar legend Nels Cline, “Eclipse” sparks to life as Looms establish a lush instrumental bedrock. Although vibrant in its full band form, "The Way Up"’s lead single goes back to Mekawy’s lonely time up on that roof as an eclipse began, forcing himself to stay up there until the song was completed.

Such is the push and pull at the heart of "The Way Up"; a heart-rending, expansively and beautifully realized full band effort born from a brutal, solitary reconciliation. Listeners who have loved and lost will find a friend in Loom’s latest effort, no matter where one is in their journey.

"The Way Up" is out May 3rd and is the fifteenth release from Good Eye Records.

VON KONOW is all about contradictions. A synthesis of different, even conflicting, musical styles and identities, the new solo act by singer and songwriter Marko von Konow combines fresh pop melodies with orchestral instrumentation alongside glam sounds and rough beats. Von Konow’s vocal presence is powerful and engaging, inspired not only by the various styles of music but by theatre, cabaret and film as well. He invites his listeners to embark on a journey to lucid atmospheres and distant places. His songs tell about the survival of exposed souls in harsh borderlands and battles between light and shadows.

The main goal is to create new musical spaces by combining the power of rock and pop with the playfulness of art music and film. The synthetic result gives musical form to various marginal figures, from fearless travelers to startling aliens and disdained criminals. The themes of love and death combine with a delicate social critique that targets our contemporary life destined for normalization and unity. von Konow does not preach any truth or doctrine; his music opens up an alternative space in which the outcasts and the forgotten are free to breathe, feel and think. If there is a message in these songs, then they proclaim that marginality does not condemn us to death but provides a freedom in which new identities and new natures become possible.

Von Konow’s synthetic approach has deep roots in European art and philosophy. Its first initiators were Friedrich Nietzsche, Jean Genet ja Jean-Paul Sartre who all urged us to abandon familiar worlds and to experiment with new forms of life. In the 20th and 21st centuries, marginal figures have been developed most freely in pop culture and music, where the best-known contributors are David Bowie, Freddie Mercury and Lady Gaga. von Konow’s music draws from these sources and aims primarily at creating a multidimensional musical space in which the audience can create their own identities. In addition to Bowie, von Konow’s inspiration comes from Kate Bush, Nick Cave, Depeche Mode, Rick Wakeman, Florence and the Machine and Owen Pallett.

RFD 078: Artemis Rising - Gold

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 

Lost and hopeless I’m tumbling through the dawn

Let me reset your mind
Lifeless like statues you are living - loving - hating
Stop all social feelings

What does it need for a grateful living?
Aiming – searching
And finding a place to
Patch your thoughts
Back to one piece

You need my constant surveillance

Don’t go
Can’t make it out alone
I’m waiting for so long
It was you who made me strong

Don’t go
My world is made of stones
You make them look like gold
Don't let me burn it down

Change it now
Your frozen thoughts just should be warmer - kinder - lighter
To weed out your darkness

What does it need to change your living?
Caring - helping
And supporting the way you
Try to focus
On your life
You need my constant surveillance

Don’t go
Can’t make it out alone
I’m waiting for so long
It was you who made me strong

Don’t go
My world is made of stones
You make them look like gold
Don't let me burn it down
