Surrounding Structures

Château Guitar

Standing backwards in the rain
you never turned to me again
There's no surprise there's always pain
every time it starts to rain

Sitting around in the same place
you took all my thoughts away
The only sun in my only day
you took all my light away

Watching the road go
moving so slow
seeing your eyes close
feelings I don't know 

Every time I look into a mirror 
I see a face that wishes you were here
Give me one more day to look you in the eyes
and I promise I'll be done with my goodbyes

Watching the road go
moving so slow
seeing your eyes close
feelings I don't know

Backwards in the Rain

Grace & The Flat Boys' first ever studio single, released ahead of their debut EP due mid-September 2021.

Produced by Ed Meltzer at Meatlocker Studios, Edinburgh.

Recap for Joe

Martin Rude & Jakob Skøtt Duo released 2 albums in 2020: The Discipline of Assent & The Dichotomy of Control. For the third installation in their Stoic opus, they join forces with Tamar Osborn on saxophone & alto flute. Similar to their first 2 albums, Rude & Skøtt improvised a tidal wave of ideas and grooves in the studio of Causa Sui’s Jonas Munk, the perks of which were shipped to the UK for Osborn’s overdubs of echo-drenched sax and wah-flute. An improvisation rippling across time & space, merging a river of constantly in flux head-on improv, as well as making room for floating harmonies and studio-wizardry.

Playful, experimental and explorative, the trio ventures into a free wash of exotica drenched in deep modal jazz-vibes - with splashes of something more futuristic and modern. But contrary to what the title suggests, there are also roaring waves of energy, sizzling funky grooves to complement the ambient undercurrent. It’s a record akin to the library & film music of the 60’s and 70’s and an ode to the willful river of experimental moderation. Far in.

Master Oogway with Henriette Eilertsen - Heading Home

After 3 albums based purely on synthesizers, the danish duo take a leap by adding live drums & guitars to their latest album. The expansion of drums adds a natural 70’s groove, maintaining a spontaneous vibe that also soaks into the analogue synths of modular wizard Kristoffer Ovesen. The improvised sessions were later honed, edited & layered, bringing forth the best of both spontaneous ideas, as well a multi-dimensional approach bringing a new depth to Videodrones extensive cinematic undercurrent of sounds. With the addition of echo & reverb drenched guitars, the duo is tapping into sounds in new realms yet strangely familiar.

Lyrics:

well i see you walking on the edge of it all
i see a wall, you walking on the edge of it all
and if hate is better than numb, but you bite your tongue
i see a wall

tongue hits the door --
no, nobody gets what they want anymore
and if hate is better than numb, hate is better then
hate is better than numb, cos i know sooner of later it’s gone.
