X-MAS 2023

"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.

groovintella takes you on a little mix adventure. deep into the groove. if you want, you can see what to expect from the tracklist. house at its best from all genres with vocals or rather me with disco loops or jazzy vibes. Sorry for the one or other blooper, unfortunately there's a virus going around that's putting me out of action. But music is always a healer and with my last strength I forget even the worst cold in the mix and deep in the groove. Recorded easter sunday. I always wear ears. Joking aside... is an old picture thought it fits..
Happy Easter to you and you.

Lyrics:
Try to get real
Say something real, you're not the first to play it safe
Trying anyway to make it clear
It's alright to feel, I get angry still
In love with the past, I won't go down like that
You don't turn the wheel 'cus you can't steer 

And I wanted to get stronger
Leaning on myself (x2)

When I'm out of the dark you can always count on me
You've been digging fossils, I'm stronger
When I'm out of the dark you can always always count on me
Now I'm feeling stronger

I feel the rain
You don't feel a thing, you're not the first to run away
Trying anyway to make it clear
They're not selling seats, they're selling fear

And I wanted to get stronger
Leaning on myself (x2)

When I'm out of the dark you can always count on me
You've been digging fossils, I'm stronger
When I'm out of the dark you can always always count on me
Now I'm feeling stronger

I'm gonna make waves
Don't wanna be the same
Not gonna play your little P.C. game
(I'm stronger)

Where Have All The Cowboys Gone? (feat. Leah Wellbaum of Slothrust)

In the beginning was pure goofiness, reckless fun just for the fun of it. After impacting head-on with this fast-paced, modern, dehumanizing world, a smiley-face with fangs, heavily compressed down to less than a pinpoint in hyper-dimensional volume, imploded to become the artist Spastic Goofball.

Influences:
Muddy Waters, The Rolling Stones, Weapon of Choice (MegaNut), NIN, New Order, Frank Zappa, Depeche Mode, Ministry, Talking Heads, Metallica, Rage Against the Machine, Babes in Toyland, Jesus & Mary Chain, Miles Davis, My Woshin Mashin and others....
