Sean Nicholas Savage – Chin Chin by Arbutus Records

 

 

 

 

From the shangri-la of the valley of song, a classic yet current piece in the folk vein, Sean Nicholas Savage casts down his final work in a three release year (Won Ton Jaz, Trippple Midnight Karma). Flamingo plays at his calmest and most confident tempo; classic titles from a young singer-songwriter, driven to maturity by over experience. On the cassette, the old soul sings and dances (eyes closed) from his fatigued mind to yours. Opening with the reflective, tropical and topical “Days Go By”, Savage is lyrically uncertain about everything but the want for his lover and her wanting him. In a world of kissing, eyes, and heart songs, “Chin Chin” celebrates the every morning electric chin kiss – perhaps for the first time in music history! In “My Chances”, Savage easily compares the thrill and fear of new romance with life’s fleeting opportunities – insisting that he’s stealing his chances back, since they were his all along. With intimate singing, minimal drum rhythms and beautiful harmonies throughout; Flamingo is a folk album in spirit, with its relaxed, lyrically driven music. The perfect company for a thoughtful winter walk or an out the window cigarette break.

Tonstartssbandht – Shot To La Parc video

The very talented Miko Revereza is behind the latest Tonstartssbandht video from Now I Am Become. Check out the video, and read more about Miko below!

“I used their lyrics as a launch pad for ideas; the writing style is so insane and the repeating line in the chorus “Kakushi toride no san akunin” is what got my imagination going. It’s a Kurosawa film I saw a long time ago and I forgot what It was about but this reference and the driving force of the music gave me the impression of anarchy and rebellion and free wheeling lifestyle. I then thought of Japanese rock and roll in the early 70s like Flower Travellin’ Band and Speed Glue and Shinki and the whole long haired youth movement that went along with it. I made around 50 pages of drawings trying to capture this kind of lifestyle and what I ended up using was a 10 foot scroll of people flying. “
