Freshing 9/9

can you?

A victory song about overcoming anything difficult.
lyrics
a fish it struggled
in the water with a hook
to get uncaught
it shook and shook
until the fish, it became free
that fish is me

a bird it nursed a broken wing
it got shot, the wound did sting
the bird cried out to be free
that bird is me

a cat got stuck up in a tree
a dog attacked the cat, you see
the cat, it tried it's best to flee
that cat is me

no longer on the hook
no longer on the branch that shook
no longer on the lookout
baby
take a second look

Get busy! 
Here’s ‘Vacant Street’, the second single from Philip Frobos’ forthcoming debut LP and novel ‘Vague Enough to Satisfy’! Released as digital single today, alongside ‘My Funny Valentine’ as the b-side, ‘Vacant Street’ is a fizzy trip of ‘Whammy’-era B52s groove, hooky basslines and enough muted meanderings to make you wanna join Philip in a sprightly skinny dip. Baker Street!

It doesn't work, everyone knows it doesn't work, logic and reason themselves show it can't work yet thankfully it won't harm the ones in charge of making it not work. 

Be wrong to be right, be bad to be good, be incorrect to ensure correctness.

Belittled with a knotted stomach day in, day in, day in....

Fun Facts:
* Oily Road Hideaway is in the key of G minor and the tempo is 85 BPM.
* It was composed at around eleven o’clock on a Friday morning in October 2000.
* Instead of being at home composing a tune, George should have been in Luxembourg to celebrate Floyd and Kat’s wedding.
* Unfortunately, Joe’s old Ford Sierra wasn’t up to the task of completing the journey.
* At around 3am, the old Ford emptied the contents of its sump all over the A303, about two miles from Stonehenge.
* The stricken Sierra was towed right back to Exeter and its sleepy occupants returned to their homes, disappointed.
* Within 15 minutes of returning home, George had composed this piece on a Hokada classical guitar.
* Nearly all the other pieces on the album At Least 1000 Words had their drums recorded at Tim’s house in North Devon, in a room about the size of a toilet.
* The mics were all pretty horrid too, and the whole system looked like it had been built by Captain Hook at a Heath Robinson school for elementary electronics.
* Oily Road Hideaway is the only track on the album that uses programmed drums.
* The rhythm breakdown in the middle of the piece was somewhat longer originally, and cut down quite drastically to save precious space on the CD.
* The Hokada classical guitar, on which the piece was written, plays two parts panned to the left.
* One is the main rhythm part, and the other a melodic motif, which only uses the two top strings.
* The nature of the part means that if one should find oneself at a party where there is a wreck of a two-string guitar, it is still possible to play Oily Road Hideaway!
* The other lead guitar part is played on the Yamaha steel string, which is panned to the right and plays unison with the bass to begin.
* Oily Road Hideaway features a delicate, wistful ostinato played on the string fish, an extraordinary instrument built by Martin from Pyg.
* It starts at 2:05 and continues to the drum break, then reappears at 2:54 and plays until the end.
* A string fish is a like a pair of dulcimers or zithers, joined together at an acute angle.
* The strings are vertical and to play a scale, the player must alternate between the left and right side, like a kalimba.
* Dave and George both play a unison bassline, on the Fender and the Plank respectively.
* George and the Plank are panned right, Dave and the Fender panned left.
* Just after the drum break, at 2:48, George plays two notes that Dave doesn’t play.
* Other than that, their parts are beautifully in sync.
* Flicker would have liked very much to have found a brass section for Oily Road Hideaway, but none was available.

From the forest floor:

"Having unearthed The Fugs CIA man some years before, we were shocked to discover a newer more sinister agency had taken over from the diatribe's protagonist so we updated Tuli Kupferberg's list of ills...

"Of course every time the song is now mentioned online, a blip of data triggers a filter that enters a file that rings a bell in a bunker deep under a mountain in Pennsylvania. So now the forest is full of agents looking for us, and we are taping up our microphones and cameras and walking backwards through our own footprints to shake them off..."

Whatever

psychedelic spacegaze // electronic krautnoise // experimental bedroomtronics // lo fi dream synth pop

i love noisy guitars // lately i am in love with noisy synthesizers, spaced out electronica and sonic experiments

all music written, played and produced by the lost space department

thank you for listening :)
