Time for Re/New

One of the most expressive cuts of IN TECHNICOLOR gets a deserved club update with album collaborator ROOSEVELT's revamp of LES DILETTANTES. Originally a slightly no-wavey narrative sporting the idiosyncratic voicework of MIT's Edi Winarni, the track now pushes back its free-form properties for a heavily disco-infused work-out driven by exquisite hooks and a delibarately jam-like mentality. Edi's singing remains largely unchanged, but reveals unexpected glamour within the new context, making this an appropriately flashy addition to IN TECHNICOLOR REMIXE.

Four years. That’s how long California dreamy-pop duo The Honey Trees’ debut LP has been in the making. Such a careful, diligent, even leisurely pace is virtually unheard of in today’s music landscape, where the hype machine churns ever faster. But The Honey Trees weren’t looking for hype; they were looking for magic. And magic takes time.

With Bright Fire, Becky Filip and Jacob Wick finally cast their charm. Ambling and melodic, The Honey Trees’ latest collection of songs conjures a world filled with golden-hour sunlight and meadows echoing with birdsong. The lyrics, rich with imagery of the natural world, are nestled in warm, lush production from Jeremy Larson, (Mutemath, Sleeping At Last, Switchfoot, Sucre) with whom the band spent a month recording in Springfield, MO, last year.

“He essentially took our music to another world,” the band says of Larson. “He helped us achieve the magical, dreamy, otherworldliness we always strive for when writing music.”

Building on the songwriting skill and bell-clear voices they showcased in their 2009 EP, Wake the Earth, (recorded with The Civil Wars producer, Charlie Peacock) The Honey Trees have grown into a fuller sound, embellishing tracks like the mournful “Siren” with cascading strings and populating Bright Fire with bursts of horns and other trimmings. As always, however, the vocals are the backbone of every song, with Becky’s crystalline voice sharing duties with Jacob’s smooth tenor and effortless falsetto as they explore themes of love and loss.

Bright Fire is a big-hearted, generous album. And it’s no wonder. Everything The Honey Trees do is a labor of love — from the songs they craft “to let people know they’re cared for no matter what,” to their merch and album art, which Becky, an illustrator, and Jacob, a graphic designer, make themselves. The magic they poured into Bright Fire may have been a long time coming, but it was worth the wait. The Honey Trees are enchanting.

Giorgio Moroder - E=MC2 (Rodion Gran Manigheo Remix)

When we where asked to produce The Legends of the Dancefloor Show for BBC Radio, I was asked to go to our friends in the business and get there accounts of the Great Larry Levan. Well Eddie Gordan and myself knew hands down that the Godfather of House needed to speak about his best friend. Frankie went to high school with Larry Levan and if anyone knew better about Larry, was Frankie. In the meantime, through Larry's radio documentary this brought me and Frankie closer, because now we shared something very personal.  Frankie told me that he would not just speak to anyone about his friend Larry and that because he knew it was me that it would be done tastefully. Well on the week of Frankie's death of him passing on 03/31/2014. I decided to grab a part of the out take of our conversation and share it with the world. You will hear about us talking about the smoke and playing in the Italian Disco's and the chit chat.. That was Frankie always telling you how it is.... 

I would like to add this: Frankie was a great friend, a mentor, a fabolous DJ, and always supported me as a producer and dj. He always played and rocked my new productions and remixes very early on reel to reel tape before they came out on vinyl promo. I have very fond memories of him playing my records on Friday's at Sound Factory Bar. Its really funny to hear Frankie talk about being inspired by Larry Levan from the Garage. Many nights I left Sound Factory Bar after hanging in the booth with him to run home and rush to make music and dj all day and night feeling totally re-inspired....Frankie Knuckles to me is one of the finest Dj's to ever live, a true class act and after hearing him in his prime he would send you running home saying to yourself, "Now I need to step up my game." 
Frankie Knuckles you are OUR #1 DJ.. You inspired all of us to travel the world and make quality house records... You will live on through your music. You taught us to always be humble and grateful for what we have. Thank you my friend....I will never forget you. Yours Truly Lenny Fontana
