Darwin Deez!
Jeg er bare halvvejs igennem albummet fra den amerikanske musiker Darwin Deez - og bliver nødt til at dele dette med dig, der end måtte læse dette.
Albummets første 4 tracks er fyldt med feel-good toner - god karma af småfunky dansetoner, lavet helt nede på stuegulvet, så sangene ikke kan andet end at vokse sig store derfra... og hver sang ender med at være stor og sublim popkunst!
Det er en næsten uvirkelig god blanding af LCD Soundsystem, Whitest Boy Alive, Kashmir (!!!) og John Mayer... indtil videre... Ved ikke hvor resten af albummet tager mig hen - men jeg sidder og lytter mens jeg skriver dette - og sangene fortsætter med at give mig fede melodier.
Tjekkede lidt op omkring ham på sin egen side. Darwin's bio har jeg copy/pasted - den viser meget godt, hvilken stemning musikken er blevet lavet. Ingen store armbevægelser men sunde opnåedlige ambitioner... Og tjek så lige musikken! 'The City', 'Radar Detector' og 'Constellations' er pt mine favoritter!
Hav en dejlig mandag...

i write and play all my songs on a 4 string electric guitar in my own tuning. my parents are baba lovers like pete townshend. lovers of meher baba. i’m one too i guess. i dance pretty good and i love to do it. i think it’s because i have a little black in me. i’m 25. my parents bought me my guitar when i was 11. they also bought me drums when i was 16, but i suck at those now. i wait tables at a vegan health food restaurant. i’m not vegan but i like health food. my bass player michelle dorrance, aka mash deez, is the one who named me “deez”. she is my best friend and confidant. we make each other laugh and she inspires me to make music. she’s never played bass before and neither has our drummer ever drummed. but i love them both as people and i want to be around them. i met greg (drums) and cole (guitar) at the vegan restaurant. i used to play guitar for my friend andrew’s band, creaky boards. during that time, i wrote and recorded these songs of mine on an old PC with a $200 mic, and now i’m just focusing on making more of my own music, videos, dance numbers, and mash-ups. we’re doing our first full US tour in november, with bishop allen and throw me the statue. i just bought a minivan this week.

Helt klart! Super nummer "Radar Detector"! Spændende lyd.
SvarSletVi ses... :-)
@ Mikael. Glad for at du kan høre det. Indlysende er det jo for al lyden, at der også gemmer sig meget Beck - både i lyd, sange og opbygning af numrene. Meget meget fine ting. Der er et nummer, som hedder 'Bed Space', hvor Darwin næsten rører ved vokal-stemninger af Sam Cooke - og der begynder det at blive rigtig stor kunst.
SvarSletDet er virkelig en god skive.
