HAZEY, the new single from Glass Animals taken from their debut album ZABA out now. Order on iTunes here: po.st/ZABAiDeluxe

your baby's fallen
you know i'm talking now
you know i'm dancing
you know i'm racing round

no no you’re so juiced
you said you'd kick the booze
you know i'll get bruised
you know i'm just a boy

come back baby don't you cry
don't you drain those big blue eyes
i’ve been crawling
come back baby don't you cry
just you say the reason why
i can calm you

you say i'm bawling
i say i'm begging while
you take my photo
i fake my breaking smile
i'm f*ckin' loco
i can't get through to you
you turn your nose you
spark up and i can go

Opeth - A Fair Judgement

How To Be A Human Being

Life Itself

I am still feel very proud of the string-quartet arrangement of „Throw back the little ones“, which I published around one year ago. I got very positive feedbacks and even in the circles of Steely Dan-aficionados the arrangement and the exceptional vocals of Jimmy Rivas were received with friendliness (and believe me Steely Dan fans are very critical). So I felt very motivated to continue.
So after one year I can present another string-quartet arrangement of a Steely Dan-song. I have chosen „Fire in the hole“. The song is one of my favourites of their first album „Can’t buy a thrill“ from 1972. It’s driven by the piano. As usual there are many chords, melodically rich interludes, everything is crafted to total perfection.

I arranged the song in the notation-software „Sibelius“. Then I set up the Cello with VSL „Solo strings“, at last I recorded the two violins and the viola live.
I have to thank Jimmy Rivas again for joining this project and his great vocals.

James Rivas: Vocals (@j-rivas)
Dirk Radloff: Violin, Viola, Cello-programming, production.

Instruments used: Violin „Anton Piegendorfer“ built 1902, unfortunately I could not borrow the viola of my sister, so I had to borrow a viola from AaKe violinmakers Bad Homburg (http://www.rhein-main-geigenbau.de/aake/contente.htm); VSL Violoncello from „Solo strings"

Recording notes: I have recorded the three upper string-instruments with three different microphones:
First Violin: Beyerdynamic M88TG
Second violin: Electro Voice N/D967
Viola: AKG C-1000S

The meaning of Steely Dan’s lyrics are mostly dark and ambiguous and „Fire in the hole“ is a perfect example. I read many interpretations and one, that convinces me is to imagine here a man, who fought in the Vietnam war. He has lost some years of life, has to get a low-class job („A woman’s voice reminds me to serve and not to speak“) as a waiter, but he still has to fight against the flashbacks of the horrific experiences („With a cough I shake it off“). 

Fire In The Hole

I decline
To walk the line
They tell me that I'm lazy
Worldly wise
I realize
That everybody's crazy
A woman's voice reminds me
To serve and not to speak
Am I myself or just another freak

Don't you know
There's fire in the hole
And nothing left to burn
I'd like to run out now
There's nowhere left to turn

With a cough
I shake it off
And work around my yellow stripe
Should I hide
And eat my pride
Or wait until it's good and ripe
My life is boiling over
It's happened once before
I wish someone would open up the door

Don't you know
There's fire in the hole
And nothing left to burn
I'd like to run out now
There's nowhere left to turn
