'Up And Away' is the first song to emerge from alt-electronic rock duo, Dragon Welding's new album, 'The Naughty Step',  set for release 28th February via Dimple Discs and is a clarion call to a dozing generation, or something. 
Its homemade video perfectly captures the barely contained infectious hooks within. 
The track also features on the EP, of the same name, that includes two other new tracks, 'Sick Of The Sight Of Lies’ and ‘Grumpy’, neither of which will appear on ’The Naughty Step’. 

Dragon Welding began as an anagram of lead guitarist and co-songwriter Andrew Golding, also a co-founder of indie noise-pop legends The Wolfhounds. An eclectic eponymous debut album was issued in 2019, followed by the all-instrumental 'Lights Behind The Eyes’ (2021) and the mighty ‘Fictionary’ (2023). Encompassing all that had gone before while also looking firmly forwards, the last of these featured 'The Dark' (feat. Anthony Chapman of Collapsed Lung) and 'An Angel Not Of This Earth' (feat. Alice Golding of labelmates The Othyrs), both hits in a parallel universe displaying the prowess of a group that has never stood still.

Following a live show in 2023 where a last minute replacement vocalist had been required for a few tracks, Nik Cockshott (formerly of ‘90s leftfield indie rockers The Spores and The Keatons) joined Golding and the duo immediately began working in a more consistently song focused direction. A new album was swiftly recorded before Cockshott emigrated from London to Manchester, since when they have worked together remotely. This initially resulted in the 2024 single 'These Are Dangerous Times', a radical electronic reworking of the very first Dragon Welding release from five years prior that neatly marked the full circle rebirth of the group.

Dragon Welding - Up And Away

They say it's important to study the classics:

Modest Mouse - Float On
Smash Mouth - All Star
Clickhole - We Couldn't Get The Rights To "Purple Rain," So We Got An Opera Singer To Sing A Similar Song

The Mouth Formerly Known as Modest

Im really proud of this and I think ill put lyrics to it one day

Amazing lead mixed and master

this song was derived by my immersion in Frank Ocean (scuse pun) and Modest Mouse in particular Dramamine - jazz and funk influenced R&B, as well as advancing the genre through his experimental approach he is considered a representative artist of alternative R&B

My rendition of Dramamine by Modest Mouse. I produced it as closely as I could to the original with my current music production skills.

Dramamine - Modest Mouse

Lyrics:

[Soulfade]
Suicidal
It's been awhile
Fallen towers
They all remain the same
Silent mourning
Tides were calling
And i'm crying
Somehow, it's got me

Can't take a look, in the open smoke
I see a man in the open road
Hoping a ghxst would be there somehow
Maybe i'm just dreaming
I see the sun in the open world
Getting real close, and i start to burn
Nothing but ghxsts, and i feel so well
Hoping i'm just dreaming

Memento mori
We're all dying
Then the song ends
Somehow, inside the dark
Here we are
Inside this coffin
Now we're going inside
A realm of ghxsts

Can't take a look, in the empty smoke
I see a man in the open road
Hoping a ghxst would be there somehow
Maybe i'm just dreaming
I see the sun in the open world
Getting real close, and i start to burn
Nothing but ghxsts, and i feel so well
Hoping i'm just dreaming
Can't take a look, in the open smoke
I see a man in the open road
Hoping a ghxst would be there somehow
Maybe i'm just dreaming
I see the sun in the open world
Getting real close, and i start to burn
Nothing but ghxsts, and i feel so well
Hoping i'm just dreaming

Soulfade - Dreamgazing II [+ Irby]

Sadie
I'll be waiting around for you
Looking all over town for you
In my Mercedes Benz

Sadie
Think of all of the love we've shared
Think I'll fall if you won't be there
Think I'll fall anyway

Take away the sky
You're gonna take away the sky
From me now
Little child
Take away the sky
You're gonna take away the sky
For awhile
Little child

Sadie
Looking up at the same old moon
Had a wish but it won't come true
In this nobody town

Sadie
Broke your neck by the break of dawn
Still you said you've done nothing wrong
When they found you so cold

Take away the sky
You're gonna take away the sky
For awhile
Little child
Take away the sky
You're gonna take away the sky
For awhile
Little child
For awhile
Little child

I have a passion for music and being able to express my creativity.

My mission is to discover and share the most intriguing music I can get my ears on. I always strive for a discerning sensibility to bring together diverse selections. From dance-floors to galleries and lounges, even yoga studios, I adapt well to immerse each space and paint the walls with just the right music for the moment. At once spacious and solid, spontaneous and cohesive, amusing and genuine.

DJ experience began on WRLC college radio ['95-'99] and continued with residencies at several eclectic venues in downtown Jersey City. While playing the bars of NYC and NJ has its charm, I also enjoy bringing music to warehouse spaces, transit plazas, backyards and community gardens, as well as forgotten corners of the forest.

From 2002-17, my humble abode was a cozy live/work space we call Railroad Studio. Serving as an audio/design lab, Railroad has been a memorable feature of city-wide events, bursting with musical performances, live painting and video projection. Our collective includes visual artist Jessie Cara [Railroad's co-creator], local indie-folk band Land of the Look Behind, projectionists Anna Almquist and Liv Arts, light sculptor Norm Francoeur, and vocalists Sirena, Carolyn Light and Bioluminescence. House concerts featured Spinning Leaves [Philly], Lost Leaders [NYC] and Las Vandelays [NJ].

In summer of 2015, we expanded to a sister space in the woodlands north of Philadelphia known as Culture Den, where we merged music, visual arts, and wellness to build community, support local entrepreneurs and foster creativity... Check out our archive of live shows from the den: https://soundcloud.com/purple-stuff/sets/culture-den-live-shows

I currently reside in the Asbury Park area along the shores of NJ, with fellow DJ/percussion/performers from Jersey City in our latest live/work space The Harmony House. See here for groovy dance mixes from Sirelo Entertainment: https://soundcloud.com/user-293099478

A seasoned producer with a lifetime of musical passion and continues to push the boundaries of electronic dance music. At 67, his love for the genre remains as vibrant as ever, inspiring him to create innovative and energetic beats that resonate with audiences young and old.
