Be Thankful For What You've Got (Rework)

This stripped-bare ballad is the quiet emotional centre of Arjuna Oakes' debut album While I'm Distracted. 

If we ever needed an example of the things that make Arjuna such a special artist, this is it. A gorgeous piano performance, cradling the sensitive vocal delivery all supported by his beautiful string arrangements and subtle production magic.

As we approach this exceptional debut LP, Lay Low provides us just a glimpse of the varied depths within.

On debut album ‘While I'm Distracted’, London-based New Zealander Arjuna Oakes draws inspiration from contemporary soul and jazz, touches of global folk, electronica, modern classical, and post-rock, with dynamic arrangements and production. ‘While I'm Distracted’ is an album about fighting for your innocence and right to be a vulnerable and honest human. Arjuna’s songwriting explores themes of identity, depression, existentialism, social media, loss of innocence, and finding hope for the future through artistic expression.

Good ol guitar music with an analog electronic twist - Saturate ur ears with a bit of the bridge!!

Watch out, this girl looks like the one
Drinking something strong
She's making eyes at Nathan
5 down, I think it could be wrong
To make mistakes for fun
Her ways untie my laces

I overflow razorblades and rope
My makeshift lifelike spaceship
Flies far too low, for tonight
LYLA LIES ALONE

Watch out, this girl looks like the one
Drinking something strong
She's making eyes at Nathan
5 down, I think it could be wrong
To make mistakes for fun
Her ways untie my laces

9 in a row wrapped around her pole
My mate is bound to waste his
Pride, given time to approach
LYLA LIES ALONE

(epic solo)

LYLA, WHY NOW?

Dicky Trisco: The Campo Sancho Mix

Early in 2012, the lads from Flight Facilities told me about a great concept for their Triple J Mix Up residency that was happening later in the year, and had a few tracks that they wanted edited. 
The concept for the mixes being a history lesson, not only musically but including global events that occurred at the time the music was released. 

They asked me if I wanted to work on one for them, and I couldn't go past choosing Lou Reed's 'Walk On The Wild Side'.

The mixes were aired on Triple J (Australia) throughout October 2012 and since no one has ever done anything like this before, 
and due to the incredible track lists each mix has, they've proven to be extremely popular. 

This edit was included in the first installment, which also contains edits by Tim Fuchs, Drop Out Orchestra, The Revenge, Skinny Joey, 
In Flagranti, Villa and of course, Flight Facilities. 

You can listen to their first mix (1972-1982) here - http://soundcloud.com/flightfacilities/flight-facilities-for-triple-j

Head on over to their Facebook page to keep up to date with the following three mixes - http://www.facebook.com/flightfacilities

Enjoy
