Kid Hastings - Come Back Sweet

I guess this one’s just an outlet to show our appreciation for music. There’s some sort of inexplicable pull towards music no matter who you are. Everyone has a track they resonate with, everyone has that guilty pleasure, that song that just swings your mood no matter what, and we just really dig this one. Hard to explain just how music can make you feel with words so we took a shot with some groovy stuff

  I always love copious percussion in tracks to push the rhythm and make you wanna move. Top that with Jule’s progressive chords and a little synth shine and we ended up with this funk drenched groove. Kind of reminds us of a jungle but in space. Hope it can take you there too.   Kees x

Pastel Jungle - Sound Delight

Led by enigmatic songwriter Rowan Sandle, Crake is driven by her endless curiosity. Armed with her gently cracking vocal, and inspiration from writers like Shirley Jackson and Nan Shepherd, she sings of crinoids, slime mould and pussy willow. When they supported Buck Meek at Brudenell Social Club, Buck found himself so beguiled by Sandle and her band that he invited them to support Big Thief on their UK and EU tour in 2019. Crake duly obliged and have been building towards their debut full-length ever since. 

Much of the forthcoming album revolves around the death of Sandle’s friend Anna, who died in Syria after being hit by a Turkish air strike. Anna was working for a woman’s liberation group in the 
war-stricken country when the tragedy took place. ‘Humans’ Worst Habits’ explores the grief that followed and the lessons learnt from dealing with such a significant loss. 

Sandle does, however, find space to explore more themes alongside this grief, such as cruelty and queer nature. On lead single ‘Winter’s Song’ she acknowledges the cruelty and coldness that exists within us all, and questions how we can continue to grow and love whilst remaining true to that. 

Speaking about the track, she said: “Winter’s Song is about the absolute mundane beauty of being fallible. It's a true story, I saw the moon rise but swore it was the sun setting. I think about this line a lot: “keep a little coldness in you, just wear it soft and gentle” Be soft, be kind, be honest. Being unremarkable has its own beauty.” 

Sandle’s love for queer nature is so fervent that it makes the experience of listening to Crake akin to that of stumbling on an entirely new world. Sandle believes that life isn’t as black and white as we’ve been taught, and thinks nature holds the key to revealing the true nature of human experience. The appearances of things like slime mould - single-celled organisms that form a single body when in search of food  - brittle starfish - a type of starfish whose awareness isn’t concentrated in one place - and other such oddities furnish ‘Humans’ Worst Habits’ with a folklore all of its own. 

‘Humans’ Worst Habits’ will send you down multiple rabbit holes and you’ll emerge from each with a newfound appreciation for the complexities of the world. Perhaps even more important than this though is the humanity that lies at the very heart of this debut full-length. Whether it’s in the sensitivity in how she portrays the loss of her friend, the depiction of our most base instincts - namely cruelty, passion and love - or the 
sincere, pure quality of the songwriting itself, it’s this that makes ‘Humans’ Worst Habits’ essential, and 
invaluable listening. 

“A pensive, dejected moment of magic, but magic nonetheless” Gold Flake Paint
“Charming and intimate alt-folk” Dork
“The guitars sizzle like lightning bolts striking against an otherwise clear sky, while Sandle’s distinct, hoarse vocal plays like another instrument” Secret Meeting
“In a world of cynics, [Crake] make you believe anything might still be possible” For The Rabbits

Lyrics:
Can’t stay out too late, cause I’m never home
Buried by the weight of a chemical
Looking for control, just to let it go
So I let it go

Flooded by the waves of the physical
Silence in the space is a miracle
Going blank by design but you’d never know

Don’t need no one to take me home
I like the way I feel on my own
And if I fall apart, the pieces of my heart and I
don’t need no one to feel whole

Shadows fill the place that I wanna go
Light has got a weight that’s unbearable
Looking for control but it never shows

It never shows
Cover up mistakes with material
Buy another face that’s more beautiful
Think of all of the ways I’ve been here before

Don’t need no one to take me home
I like the way I feel on my own
And if I fall apart, the pieces of my heart and I
don’t need no one to feel whole

💔🌊💔🌊💔 LYRICS 💔🌊💔🌊💔
My love is a stranger
My love is a ghost
My love is a liquor
Burning my throat
Ooh
There's a stranger in my bed 
'Cause I don't know where you went
My lover's made of velvet
My lover's made of velvet
My lover's made of stone
Oh he cuts me to the bone

Got a hold of you
Got a hold of you
Got a hold of you

Blue devil
Got a hold of you
Got a hold of me
Blue devil baby
Blue devil baby
Thunder rolling in as I watch you sink
Blue devil baby
How can we come back from this
Ooh

Sweet dolour
Sweet Saturn hold me
Dream a little dream of me
As you're swallowed by the sea
Ooh
Cold waves, hot temper
And all your violent embers
But your fire's cooling
And still you keep fooling me
With late night lies and midnight crying

Got a hold of you
Got a hold of you
Got a hold of you

Blue devil
Got a hold of you
Got a hold of me
Blue devil baby
Blue devil baby
Thunder rolling in as I watch you sink
Blue devil baby
How can we come back from this

You set it loose
It bared its teeth
And now something blue's got a hold of me
Love me tender, love me true
Love me 'til my heart turns blue
Does it still hurt for you
Or am I just a fading wound

Blue devil
Got a hold of you
Got a hold of me
Blue devil baby
Blue devil baby
Thunder rolling in as I watch you sink
Thunder rolling in
Still I pray that you'll swim
Blue devil baby

Blue Devil
