DJ FETT BURGER - Triple J Mix

This Original Somerville & Wilson track is our second instalment in our exclusive “only available at Bandcamp” releases. 

Here at S&W HQ we are proud to finally release to the globe a track that has been quietly bubbling away in the studio for the last few years. 

With carnival like vibes, arps set to stun, sweeping infectious synths, pads and soaring strings. This track is over 12 minutes of what Rich Lane called “an epic slow spaced out builder”. 

Welcome to ‘Elementary Watson’. 

Enjoy, and remember to play it LOUD! 

Thanks for your support. 

S&W Xx

Somerville & Wilson - Elementary Watson

Over several years, to 2019, I re-edited Keith LeBlanc's classic "Major Malfunction" album to make it "full length", according to an imaginary concept in my head.

The full story, in gory detail, is here: https://jrbinks.wordpress.com/2019/12/28/major-malfunction-reimagined/

This is the first time I have made this full length, 2hr 16m version publicly available.  A 2hr edit was featured On The Wire in October 2019: https://otwradio.blogspot.com/2019/10/playlist-26th-october-2019.html

What did Keith think of it?  Well I told him I was doing it, he showed some interested and thanked me for asking his permission, but didn't respond when I sent him the final versions and other commentary.  So I don't know ... and now I never will.

In memory of Keith LeBlanc.

Tracklist:
01. Lane 8 - Skin & Bones (Local Dialect Remix)

Release Info:
The latest edition of our free download series welcomes the New York City-based duo Local Dialect. The two have been steadily gaining traction ever since Lane 8 dropped the title track of their 'Phial' EP in his 2018 Anjunadeep Edition. He has continued to support their music, such as their recent hit 'Magna' on Somatic Records, in the last 3 installments of his renowned seasonal mixtape series. With remixes for the likes of Andre Sobota, Kyau & Albert, and Nora En Pure under their belt, as well as a forthcoming release on Gorgon City's REALM imprint, their hot streak seems sure to continue in 2019. Today, they are excited to share their remix of Lane 8's 'Skin & Bones.' This has been highly anticipated by fans ever since it appeared in Lane 8's Winter 2018 mixtape, and after long last we are pleased to bring it to you as a free download. Enjoy!

This powerful track is called Neuntöter or Red-backed Shrike. It is a very special songbird, because it spears its prey such as insects, juvenile birds, reptiles or small mammals for mincing and food storage on thorns or young branches. Formerly it was thought he would kill nine before eating one. Hence it is called as much as “nine-slayer“ in German. The bird with the distinctive eye stripe kills its prey with a strong, hook-shaped raptor-like beak. At first glance, this falcon-like upper beak is also the only external distinctive feature, which hints at its "martial attitude“. From his remaining appearance, it looks more like a „usual" songbird. I tried to describe this ambivalence with musical counterpointing: Hard beats, brute basslines and shrill sounds to clarify the predatory nature of it, whereas conciliatory pads and lovely bell-sounds highlight his being as a precious gift of mother nature and important gear of our ecosystem.

Dieser kraftvolle Track heißt Neuntöter. Dies ist ein ganz besonderer Singvogel der seine Beute, wie Insekten, Reptilien, Jungvögel oder kleine Säugetiere, zum Zerkleinern und Anlegen von Vorratslagern auf Dornen und spitzen Ästen aufspießt. Früher dachte man, er würde neun Tiere töten, bevor er eines verspeist, daher sein furchteinflößender Name. Er tötet seine Beute mit einem kräftigen, hakenförmigen und greifvogelähnlichem Schnabel. Dieser falkenartige Oberschnabel ist auf den ersten Blick auch das einzige äußerliche Erkennungsmerkmal, was sein „martialisches“ Wesen erahnen lässt. Von seinem restlichen Erscheinungsbild her wirkt er eher wie ein "gewöhnlicher" Singvogel. Diese Ambivalenz habe ich versucht mit musikalischen Kontrapunktierungen zu beschreiben: Harte Beats, brachiale Basslines und schrille Sounds, um die räuberische Natur des Vogels mit dem markanten Augenstreif zu verdeutlichen; wohingegen versöhnliche Pads und liebliche Glockensounds sein Wesen als kostbares Geschenk von Mutter Natur und wichtiges Zahnrad unseres Ökosystem herausstellen sollen.
