What Does Joan Say?

The first single from @NeinRecords boss Tronik Youth's forthcoming second lp. 

Top track and certainly getting us excited for the coming album.  This release also featuring remixes from Barney Khan and @BirdofParadiseMusic. The latter, who also runs the Sulk Magic label, does an excellent job keeping the essence of the original whilst putting his own original stamp on it. 

Release Date - 12/01/18

Peel Dream Magazine is the nom de plume of New York City-based musician Joe Stevens. A nod to BBC Radio 1 legend John Peel, arbiter of all things underground, Peel Dream Magazine is highly evocative of a certain strain of independent music. Stevens harkens back to the early 1990s, when The Velvet Underground resurged as an inspiration to a new set of bands wielding synthesizers, off-set guitars, and a political bent. The Peel Dream experience is defined by a gentle, fuzzy psychedelia —it’s a hypnotic bit of mod-ish lo-fi pop, recalling the best of early Stereolab, Lilys, and other shaggy haired kids with vintage fuzz pedals, slim trousers, and good record collections.

Written and recorded over a four-week period in the fall of 2017, Peel Dream Magazine’s debut album "Modern Meta Physic" fixates on the New Age universe of the Catskills region of New York. Stevens deals in esoteric bohemian fare — Far East philosophy, Native American tradition, mid-century modern cool — as he appraises the world according to privileged urban expats who increasingly call the upstate paradise home.

Leading off the album, "Qi Velocity" is a metronomic take on French pop that yields to a lush chorus reminiscent of Belle and Sebastian. “Deetjen's," named after the much-loved bed & breakfast in Big Sur, would fit snugly on Unrest's best Teen Beat material. "Due to Advances in Modern Tourism" displays a soft take on Neu!, while the organ that enters could be a sly wink to Steve Reich's "Four Organs.”

There is an economy to these tracks — everything is distilled down to it’s essential elements, no gestures are wasted, no superfluous ornamentation taking up space. While Stevens is more than happy to show his influences on his sleeve — mind you, they're great influences — it's clear Peel Dream Magazine isn't just a “sound." The guy can write songs. Where he goes next is anybody's guess.

Our unreleased instrumental cover version of Nick Drake's River Man. One day we will find a singer who wants to sing on it.

River Man (Nick Drake instrumental cover - Pastoral / Radiophonic)

This is a melody I've written as an idea for a theme song for bond film

Standing in the flame

Includes a selection of tracks from the forthcoming e.p Bury the Forest by Rowan : Morrison (The Rowan Amber Mill and Angeline Morrison) alongside bonus non-album tracks.

The e.p. explores themes of our beautiful natural surroundings, and how the pursuit of profit guides us to learn 'the cost of everything and the value of nothing', paving the way for the scarring of the landscape with fracking, HS2, retail parks, and so on...

This is explored in thenarrative, which takes a snapshot of an imagined history of the land. It explores the conflict taking place at the same area (The Ridgeway) through time periods between the land and man with their developing technologies. These events take place throughout time, from pre-history through to the near-future. In a very 1970s "Play for Today" sort of way, they start to bleed into each other as over time, the earth begins to enter a period of hibernation to heal itself from the destruction wrought upon it.

Recorded in stolen moments, over a handful over years, in various front rooms and back rooms. We hope you enjoy this selection.

We Rode the Horses by Rowan : Morrison

The Buzzard and the Nightingale by Rowan : Morrison

Lambeaux amers
Décomposition sonore
Plainte nocturne
Apnée du sommeil
Cérémonie d'un adieu aux vivants
Larsen chatouillant les tympans
Piquant comme des punaises de lit
Lancinant comme une longue agonie...
