While attending Purchase College Nicole Schneit met Dan Deacon, a friend and former collaborator who once described her comforting songs as something akin to "a favorite blanket wrapped around you." Though she played in several bands in college (including the noise jam band Ferrari with Deacon) she eventually shifted her focus to writing and recording intimate pop songs under the name Air Waves, a moniker inspired by the title of a Guided by Voices song.

After extensive touring in support of her 2010 album Dungeon Dots, Schneit took some time off from writing. "It was crucial for my creative process to take a step back from making music. Part of being a performer is having confidence to just be vulnerable. I needed to regain that confidence to make an album again after Dungeon Dots," she says. The vulnerability she speaks of is part of what makes her music as Air Waves so compelling. Even her fictional narratives employ an almost preternatural honesty that feels emotionally naked, exposed, and ultimately relatable.

Her new album Parting Glances takes its title from the 1986 film of the same name, in which Steve Buscemi portrays a gay man navigating the difficulties of being in a relationship in Reagan-era New York. "I've never seen a film with Steve Buscemi in it that I didn't love," says Schneit. More than just identifying with the story, she's interested in the in the lasting effect of the parting glances we share with strangers in our everyday encounters. She explains "You see all sorts of physical and emotional traits on the train. From people puking, making out, screaming, crying, laughing, dancing, grooming, etc. We encounter each other in the thick of our complex lives by simply looking at each other all the time. These glances are mundane and fleeting but also powerfully intimate." The lingering impact of those brief moments seeps into the details and imagery she delivers through her lyrics on Parting Glances. With energizing hooks and a disarming lack of pretense, the songs on Parting Glances burn with ebullient energy and an emotionally engaging core from beginning to end.

As If

Freedom! '15

Pre-order ‘As If’

Part 9 of the Handcut Record Club marks the return of old friends as we welcome Husband Material onboard. Launching earlier this year with NME Radar’s track of the week ‘What Did I Do Wrong’ (and following a quick stint in our AIH vs Mac DeMarco sessions), HM prove who is the ‘Bigger Man’ – available now for free download as part of our HCRC collection. 

Having exhausted writing and recording as the short-lived Bos Angeles, Richard Board effectively strips preconceived ideals of how he may have evolved, championing minimalist melody and forlorn funk at its finest. Melting bass lines through intoxicating keys, it’s the impressive subtlety of swooning guitar cushioned by depreciative vocal that fuse the natural depth of Board’s pop sensibilities. Completing the group’s lineup are Charlotte Desborough (keys / vocals), Zac Harris (bass / vocals) and also of Bos Angeles, George Rothman (drums).

As with previous Hand Cut singles, Bigger Man will be released on lathe cut 7″ and limited to 25 copies. The 25 copies will be available from our shop here at 1pm today! As always it’s worth pointing out that because these records are handcut, they will sound slightly lofi! If you’re not down with that, then the track is available for free download from both our Bandcamp and Soundcloud. (http://artishardrecords.limitedrun.com/products/557695)

Not only will Husband Material join us at our upcoming 5th birthday event (https://www.facebook.com/events/696329020492478/) but they'll also play the follow dates;

29th August - The AIH 5th Birthday, Bristol

"Pick Me Apart" is the first single off of Active Bird Community's new album "I've Been Going Swimming." 

Produced by Christopher Daly at Salvation Recording Co. in New Paltz, NY and mastered by Jamal Ruhe at West West Side Music.

The album will be out this fall. Artwork by Tara Grzinic.


Pick Me Apart

Lead single from Wolf Girl, newly signed to Odd Box Records.

Wolf Girl are Becky, Chris, Carl and Christabel - a garage pop four-piece based in South London with a shared propensity for long walks on the beach, guitars that look like Cadillacs and feral teenagers. Having met each other through being in awkward teenage bands in the South East, they eventually formed in September 2013.
 
Their debut EP ‘Mama’s Boy’ was released on limited edition cassette on Soft Power Records in November 2014, and stays true to the poppy energy of their frenetic live shows. With admirable authenticity, they record and rehearse in an old garage called Bucket East that backs onto the river Wandle, staying faithful to their garage-rock tendencies. It’s been said that they both do and don’t sound like the Ramones, and have also been compared to both the Shop Assistants and Bratmobile. 

Wolf Girl have their own trademarks though, offering a spirited take on powerful, melodic and jagged indie pop that often recalls the noisier aspects of C86.

Goldmund - Sometimes

I don't wanna be funny anymore.
I don't wanna be funny anymore. 
Lately, I've been feeling like the odd man out.
I hurt my friends saying things I don't mean out loud.

I don't wanna be funny anymore. 
I got a too short skirt, maybe I can be the cute one.
Is there room in the band? I don't need to be the front man. 
If not, then I'll be the biggest fan. 

I don't want the joke to be on me.
Yeah, I'll buy the clothes and I'll be the best dressed.
Yeah, I'll read the books and I'll be the smartest.
I'll play guitar and I'll be the artist. 

Try not to laugh.
I know it'll be hard.
I'm serious.
I know it's a first but...

I don't wanna be funny anymore.
I'll be the gossip, hear it through the grape vine.
Pass it on, she's done with the old times.
That funny girl doesn't wanna smile for a while.
