i am working again in vienna (seriously) finishing the record and i have been listening to AEREA NEGROT’s voice all week on what is turning out to be one of my favorite songs on the new record… i can remember the process of recording it with her. i have NEVER seen an artist operate like her in the studio, and this song is proof. the vocal performanceerupted out of her like, i don’t know, wow….
anyhow, look at her myspace, she is hard at work with b pitch control in berlin…

as for the song, it is called “answers come in dreams” and if i might say she sings the hell out of it ala my old favorite bernard fowler featured here in the nycpeechboys classic “don’t make me wait”
i have had some really fun visitors over the past three weeks. kim ann foxman shaun j wright and shayne oliver all came to work in some capacity… kim ann has some gorgeous sounding stuff she’s been workin on, as does miss shaun. but it has been like a battle royale, so in honor of the festivities i thought i would post the original lady club crew, the Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling aka GLOW
in my mind, most excellently represented by hollywood and vine
xymox started out as clan of xymox and were like the cocteau twins (without the inimitable liz fraser) but then turned into a dance dark wave goth weird kind of eurobeat/balearic band, and i loved it! they look amazing in this video
SO I AM WORKING ON ONE OF THE DISCO NUMBERS FOR THE NEW RECORD, AND IT IS INSPIRED A BIT BY…WELL , COUNTRY MUSIC!
BUT in a fun disco way! i wanted to post a video of “ghost riders in the sky” by boots clements (originally written by classic country man stan jones). i couldn’t find an mp3 or video, so i thought i’d post “il viliero” by the chaplin band. it has a fraction of the ho down of “ghost riders” but it still feels like a little bit of a barndance.
this video has boobs and gyration in it= be warned!!
acid version of this song that i like but the version i had was on todd terry’s idlers label (subdivision of warlock- they put out the jungle brothers and stuffs)
