The Woman That Loves You (Audiotree Live Version)

Nathaniel Paul’s sophomore album “Turpentine” (out Spring 2022 via AWAL). Singer-songwriter and producer from The Emmy award winning band ‘The Bergamot’, is set to release his sophomore album in the spring of 2022. The album’s 2nd single “Turpentine” is out on Jan. 21st.

“Turpentine” is the follow up to his critically acclaimed debut album “Learning to Listen” out last year. 

The new single “Turpentine” will premiere on Obscure Sound on January 21st, 2022.

“I almost died shooting this video” states Paul. “I thought it wasn’t going to be all that bad. But when your actually hanging upside down, it really gives you tunnel vision.” He laughs. “But honestly, we live in a world of chemicals and things trying to kill us all the time, I thought this was the perfect way to convey the message of the song.” 

Nathaniel shot the video for “Turpentine” hanging upside down. The song lyrics start with “Take me off that assembly line” referring to the state of homogeneity that has been created through the overconsumption of news, social media, and the internet at large. The song hopes to take a look at what we are going through as a culture. 

Nathaniel will be releasing a series of music videos and singles throughout 2022 to promote a new album out this summer. So keep an eye out. 

Nathaniel Paul - (Singer-Songwriter, Producer, Multi-Instrumentalist) has created a full length record from a closet. Glide Magazine says Nathaniel has created, “a bold musical statement with cutting vocal dynamics that weave throughout warm and fastidious instrumental color. Paul possesses an acute sense of production and arrangement, creating a whimsically creative world reminiscent of Tame Impala and Mac Demarco.”

"HOTEL VALENTINE" out 02.14.2014 On Chimera Music
http://yeahbasicallycibomatto.com/

One of the most beloved and critically-acclaimed band of the late 90s, Cibo Matto pioneered post-genre freakout long before the digital shuffle.   Spiking their artful pop songs with rap, funk, jazz, and influenced by Brazilian, African, and Latin sounds, they placed in Spin's Top Albums of the 90s and Time magazine's Best Hip Hop Albums of All Time. During a brief two-record career they graced major magazine covers and were immortalized on an early episode of Buffy The Vampire Slayer. Post breakup the band received a "Best Of" overview from Rhino Records in 2007, and their track "Sugar Water" appeared in the Nip/Tuck series finale in 2010. All along Miho Hatori & Yuka Honda have continued to record projects both pop and avant garde, have guested on records by the Beastie Boys, Gorillaz, and in 2012 performed (as Cibo Matto) at a KCRW concert at the Hollywood Bowl. Returning to the studio as Cibo Matto, they have made their most impressive and cinematic album, packed with kaleidoscopic grooves, demented horns, crazy synthesizers and funky-but-chic blasts of pure danceability. 


Hotel Valentine is a metaphor, a question, an answer, an idea, a feeling; A strange and vivid scene. Cibo Matto's first record in 15 years is a cinematic bricolage, a rich concept album, a love story amid the ghosts traversing the hallways of a hotel. Underneath the lush sonic palate, Yuka Honda and Miho Hatori have created the soundtrack to an invisible film as they’ve continued to refine their sound and remain fully committed to an ethic of fun, living the continuum that surrealism is timeless. Having spent some time apart, says Honda, we became more aware of our magical chemistry, our magnetic bond. We both realized we had unfinished business. With one of the most colorful careers of the 90s, Cibo Matto's live shows and albums were marked by wild experimentation, incorporating hip-hop, Brazilian music, African and Latin jazz, and pop into their unclassifiable mix- setting a blueprint for outrageous pop into the new millennium.

LYRICS
 you tap in  
as i tap out 
even i know solitude  
summoned by a rectangle  
you're practiced and elaborate 
sharpen this fool 
redder than a wrestler  
sharpen this fool 
i am not the reckoner
  
brother all the furniture  
reclines when you’re gone  
rise and fall like parable lickers  
devotion
 
lickers devotion 
sharpen this fool  
redder than a wrestler  
sharpen this fool  
i am not the reckoner
  
brother i'm the reckon collector  
but i'm full 
i'm your undivided attention  
but i'm gone  
tension 
when I'm not
  
sharpen this fool 
redder than a wrestler  
sharpen this fool 
i am not the reckoner
