I remixed The Foreign Resort this weekend, and I hope you enjoy it.
The Foreign Resort has fused the dark sounds of the 80's with electronic beats, energetic drumming and piercing reverb guitars. Since 2006 the band has been exploring new wave rock making expressive and spell-binding songs. With parallels to My Bloody Valentine and Joy Division, The Foreign Resort balances between the massive and the delicate. http://theforeignresort.bandcamp.com/
Novachild, helmed by Bruce Rich, extends to nearly 14 years of recordings, live performances, and collaborations. Echoing flavors of ambience, IDM, Jazz & Progressive Rock, Novachild's 7th release "Havia" features Ransom Conner on Bass and James McGowan on drums, summoning a new, organic force amid epic pads, minimal melodies, and eclectic textures. http://novachildmusic.bandcamp.com I’M LOOKING for more artists to remix. If interested, please contact me. Also, please join my Newsletter for occasional updates, specials, freebies, press, and such.
I thought it might be interesting to keep a chart of the new music I’ve been indulging in lately.
But first, a phone pic of my new guitar :)
First up, a ‘new’ song by The Doors, found on some recordings made for LA Woman.
I’m enjoying Bitcrush quite a bit, moody, textured, emotive and lush music.
This tune by Lemon Jelly inspires me to reminisce about old ‘70s pick-up lines I never used (I swear). “If I could rearrange the alphabet, baby, I’d put U and I together.”
Drowner, from Houston, is Fabulous Shoegazey Dream Pop. I know I’m hooked.
I recently remixed The Foreign Resort’s new song “Orange Glow.” Here is the entire EP. If you like good shoegazey new wave, this band from Denmark hits all the right spots.
Last, but not least, here’s a song I wrote a few years ago for “In Silico.” I wrote it while sitting at the Coffee House on Cherry Street. It was a nice vacation day, I recall.
