It's four AM and I got a feeling that I’ll see you again
Was sure of it then, my mind sent reeling as she leaves with a friend 
It’s a sinking ship sailing, I’d seen it before
Yeah I knew she was leaving, but no not going very far
If you got a moment, and if you got a moment talk to me
You look a little lonely, a little lonely
The shoreline bends, the skylines blinding at 4 AM 
Was sure of it then, the taxicab breathing back smoke round the bend
With the moonlight shining on the hood of a car
It’s a motor firing a bit of light in the dark, light in the dark
If you got a moment, and if you got a moment talk to me
You look a little lonely, a little lonely
If you got a moment, and if you got a moment talk to me
Like the moonlight on the motor shining

From Sean Donnelly:

I think it was at Skylark, a bar and meatball spot in Rochester where we first saw and played with Mikaela - this was one of VERY few Rochester shows we played away from our beloved Bug Jar. I remember Dan and her having a conversation on the sidewalk outside the venue about cats. It was over 100 degrees and balmy on the stage which led to the only time I've worn a tank top and shorts at a performance, but perhaps more importantly, it set a strange, hallucinatory mood for Mikaela's harp-led set. After that show, we were all enamored with Mikaela, her band and their music. 

We've all become good friends over the years and Mikaela was nice enough to lend her harp skills to the Bad Dreams interlude on How Do You Feel Now? If you've listened, you know it adds this amazing, narcotic and dreamy mood the end of the record that might not have been possible without her. 

If you haven't listened to her own music before, change that. She has great stuff out already, and some amazing music on its way. 

Here are a few pieces of information about the remix:

- I think most of it came together in a hotel room in Las Vegas and on various airplanes (I think there are some samples of ambient airplane noise within). We were there to play a show on this massive outdoor stage in Downtown LV but we kind of cowered in our rooms for the rest of our time there, hiding from the hijinx of the casinos and nightclubs below. We're not really the gambling/Vegas types. 

- Arranging the chords with her vocal definitely happened on an airplane. If you've ever made music on a jet, you know - depending on the noise cancellation quality of your headphones -  it can be extremely difficult to hear the actual notes you're playing. However, this resulted in some strange but really interesting harmonies that I otherwise wouldn't have thought of. 

- Rhythmically, this was a challenging remix to take on because Mikaela's drummer Alex is honestly one of my favorite drummers ever - he has amazing taste. Taking the percussion they put together for the original song and trying to re-imagine or inject some of my own flavor to it felt a little sacrilegious to me, but I'm pleased with how it turned out and the energy I was able to add to the song.

Moondog - Hymn To Peace (Paris, 1982)

Brown Recluse formed in 2006 around the core of Timothy Meskers and Mark Saddlemire. Taking influence from the psych pop of The Zombies and Margo Guryan, the tropicalia of Os Mutantes, and 60s producers like Joe Meek and Phil Spector, the two recorded the bulk of their debut six-song Black Sunday EP. A brilliant blast of pop invention, Black Sunday easily rates as one of our favorite records of the last five years. Its blend of blinding songcraft, skilled arrangements and gorgeous playing is an absolute joy; it's rare to hear a record so assured from such a young band.
2006 and 2007 saw the duo expand to a six-piece live band that played numerous shows on the east coast with bands as varied as The Pains of Being Pure At Heart, Tyvek and Dirty Projectors, writing new material and winning new fans along the way. The Soft Skin EP was recorded in mid-2007 and released on Slumberland in September 2009. Its pastoral, psychedelic vibe brought to mind the sunshine pop of Curt Boettcher's The Millennium/Sagittarius projects, and such familiar touchstones as Brian Wilson, The Clientele and the Elephant 6 collective.

All the while they've been writing songs, honing arrangements and stockpiling musical ideas, and we're quite honored to be able to bring you Evening Tapestry, Brown Recluse's long-awaited debut full-length album. From the summertime daydream of opener "Hobble To Your Tomb" to the 50s-tinged pop of "Statue Garden" to the folky strum-fest that is "Monday Moon," Evening Tapestry shows a band at the peak of their powers, effortlessly combining elements old and new into a rich and very distinctive whole. Lead writer/singer/guitarist Timothy Meskers is really on fire here, his melodic vocals soaring in perfect complement to the deceptively complex tunes and gorgeous arrangements. Keyboards are subtly deployed throughout, playing counterpoint to the skilled jangling/comping of Meskers and fellow guitarist Herbie Shellenberger. The sound is warm and full, the band having recorded the album, like their previous EPs, at the esteemed Sound-In-The-Round studio.

While these eleven songs are truly bursting with ideas, they are also models of concision. Such is the focus and craft that Brown Recluse bring to this remarkable set of tunes that only one is longer than three and a half minutes. Future pop classics like "Impressions of A City Morning," "Summer Showers" and "At Last" are consummate examples of the song-writing art; full of great playing, poetic lyrics and melodic invention, they neatly sum up this sublime album. It's been a long time coming, but Brown Recluse have made quite a statement with Evening Tapestry, and we think you'll agree that it's one of the strongest pop albums in years.
