marking the start of an exciting new collaborative project, wolf + lamb proudly share the debut release of the waves & us. formed out of a creative meeting of minds between maayan nidam, markus nikolaus and louis mcguire, theirs is a sound that strengthens the storied approach of a live band with the experimental thrust of analogue electronics. pop and rock fundamentals lend an earthly hook to the tracks, but these are anything but straight-forward songs. maayan has already forged a formidable career in electronic music, both under her own name and as part of mara trax, scoring releases on such celebrated labels as perlon. markus performs his own solo project cunt cunt chanel, while louis is part of ballet school, a band releasing on noted indie label bella union. the whirlwind of creativity that has whipped up around the trio has yielded an album which will follow this single, made up of one-take recordings that capture the energy and adventure that powers the waves & us. maayan s electronics provide the atmospheric backdrop to the songs, running modular synthesisers and drum machines through detailed chains of processing and effects with an emphasis on a warm, charmingly rough finish. markus guitar undergoes a similar fuzzy treatment while his voice calls out introspective, abstract lyrics to set the mind racing. louis bass underpins the music with a dubby sensibility, bringing a necessary balance to the frequency range. making the most of their in-the-room recording approach, the singles will feature alternative takes of the songs that will appear on the album, providing a little insight into the flutters and fluctuations that shape the development of this project. with their eyes fixed on live performances and an arresting sound already formed, this is a vital time for all three artists and the people that listen to them.

nrbq sind die mutter aller eklektizismus-bands. schon auf ihrem 1969er debüt-album coverten sie sun ra, spielten eddie cochran-rock & roll und komponierten die tollsten popsongs, was yo la tengo, bonnie raitt, paul mccartney, elvis costello oder den chefnörgler keith richards zu ihren größten fans gemacht hat. sie sind die ewige lieblingsband vom drehbuchautor marc scully, was sie zur wohl unbekanntesten band macht, die jemals bei den simpsons einen auftritt hatte. was aber auch dazu führte, das sponge bob schwammkopf immer wieder ihre lieder sang. aus der original-quartett ist leider nur noch keyboarder und sänger terry adams übrig, aber die aktuelle besetzung, die seit nunmehr 8 jahren zusammen spielt lässt für eingefleischte nrbq fans keinen wunsch offen. das neue album „brass tacks“ zeigt nrbq in ihrer ganzen prächtigen vielfalt. das berliner label staatsakt, das auch zum kreis der großen nrbq-fans gehört, ist sehr glücklich, sich in deutschland um die vermarktung und promotion für -brass tacks- zu kümmern.

the first part of another golf channel double header from the insanely prolific and scarily on form combination of dean meredith & ben shenton. a side *c.e.r.e.m.o.n.y.* has been dubbed the barnyard stomp by split secs / sonns travis kirschbaum (aka tk disco) - 11 minutes of bluesy peyote riot that features derek holt of 70s black country legends the climax blues band. b side *hiding from my shadow* is ripe with the funk too, but takes us away from the fertile stench of the psychedelic session in the barn and instead channels minneapolis via stafford as p-funk squiggles give way to mr. meredith’s trademark chugging bass. metal and technology vs mother earth in an elemental battle - both sides win! golf channel every time !
