We haven't released any covers in the past and it feels a little strange but these had a nice feel as a group so we decided to share. We hope that you like them and especially hope you are inspired to check out the original versions of these songs if you don't already know them. These artists are a great inspiration to us. 


Rock & Roll (Elvis Depressedly Cover)

///A1 is a collection of instrumental music I made in Summer/Fall 2016.

I recorded myself playing piano and guitar on iphone and then sampled those recordings as the basis for these tracks. Two exceptions: A 1 C  is a Seagulls sample from the "Great Pine" album.  A 1 I is a sample of a performace of Hurrain Hymn which is the oldest known melody in human history.  

I added beats and synths to flesh out the samples. I layered each track with samples of ASMR and white noise high in the mix and combined that with heavy, slow-release compression and auto-filtering to create breathing/vamping.

Very Special thanks to GentleWhispering (Maria) who graciously allowed me to sample recordings of her voice, crinkles, tapping, and breathing.  https://www.youtube.com/user/GentleWhispering

MotorCar

New God is psychedelic pop from Baltimore, Maryland, USA.  Their debut LP, Motorcar, was over 5 years in the making and was released in 2012 to much critical praise. The group is lead by Kenny Tompkins, frequently compared to The Beach Boys' with thick, Brian Wlison-like harmonic vocal arrangements. Tompkins is also well known for his more experimental electronic work under the moniker “The Christmas Lights.”  Following the 2012 vinyl release of "Motorcar" on Good Soil Records, the group has toured sparsely and has been frequently releasing free music from their website, New-God.Com, including the Summer Girl single and the Silver Rings EP.  They Are currently at work on their second full length album which is slated for release in Summer 2014 via Yellow K Records.
