Silver (4:21)
With Bryn Mathieu
A driving mid tempo groove with mellotrons and hero guitar providing a muted sense of urgency...
Chemical
Sky* (4:53)
With Bryn Mathieu.
A simple crackly guitar blended with industrial noises, a pounding groove and intermittent vocals goes from intimate to epic.
Pulser (2:37)
With Bryn Mathieu.
Throbbing electronica undermined and enhanced by slide guitar and distant vocal noises.
Stand
Up Straight (3:51)
Slow but very purposeful. A simple, piano led groove track that alternates between resignation and hopefulness.
Drumtrain (3:47)
Drum and bass type rhythms and previously unheard keyboard noises push this one to frantic and back.
Drive On (4:11)
Purposeful, driving, on the move from heartbreak in the rear view mirror. A Four-on-the-floor techno beat, acoustic strumming and an electric guitar lead line.
Dirty (3:06)
A strung out drummer holds his own against a hint of vampire jazz.
Tripped (3:06)
A choppy synth engine, treated acoustic guitars, distorted drums, reverse vocal noises, all building to some shameless electric guitar show off moves.
Roadkill (4:27)
Acoustic guitars, dobros and mandolins mixed with digital screeches and a hint of violence. Country on the edge...
Smack
It (3:32)
With Bryn Mathieu.
Pounding Big Beat Groove. Tune in the bass. Unrelenting.
Just In Time (4:35)
With Bryn Mathieu
Alt Rock meets the computer. Frenetic, schizo. A big, vocal chorus comes and goes while the groove refuses to give up. Synth tunes, electric noises, guitar noodling, the reluctant rap, everything including the kitchen sink on this one.
Out
of Time (4:06)
Troubled. On the run? An insistent, complex drum pattern with blips and dreamy guitar on top, this one calms down in the middle
and then returns to the chase.
Over
There (3:20)
A hint of Russia and the Middle East, a dulcimer leads the way over a mid tempo groove.
Urban...New York...Kiev...Instanbul...
Gold (3:28)
Warm, gentle and relaxed. A mandolin plays a slow loping melody over a simple beat.
Walkabout (6:41)
A crackly guitar strumming with a quiet sense of purpose until a pounding groove rudely interrupts taking the track into a completely different world.
Afterglow (3:56)
Quiet urgency. A mellow but insistent mid-tempo groove with scratchy rhythm guitar and a lead piano line gives way to spacey choruses.
Wurlitzer
Sky (4:46)
Very Lo fi. Fender Rhodes, a one beat drummer, sadness moving in and out of optimism.
Stealer (2:31)
Definitely on the move...An urgent rhythm guitar part gives way to a drive-by harmonica.
Fingers (2:27)
Cheeky, irreverent, naughty, with a warm glow from that third glass of Chianti. Electro percussion, fender rhodes and electric guitar, is this track making fun of me ?
Inside
Out (4:09)
Wobbly guitar gives way to a lumpy groove. Bassy. Heavy. Big Chorus.
Any
Second Now (2:50)
Orchestral Strings and choir provide an atmospheric wash above an increasingly urgent percussion backing.
Still Here (3:00)
Sad, simple, repetitive, a very even mood. A wurlitzer, an electric guitar over the next hill and a hint slide. All alone on a dirt road in New Mexico?
Troubleshooter (1:39)
Voices blended with feedback, bells and synth percussion. Eerie. Doomy.
Sandman (4:18)
Can't sleep, head full of noise...Angular and twisted. Tuned percussion and a nervous drummer can't calm down.
Stretch (5:59)
A song without a vocal. A Simple, pounding backbeat with watery keyboards and distant guitars.
Breezing (1:17)
Very fast layered synth and percussion. Computer music.
Tangle (2:18)
Lumbering, trying to get up, feet stuck in a swamp.... A bass guitar and an acoustic bass play a simple duet with intermittent percussion.
Nightmoves (1:08)
Piano led thematic piece. Dark, atmospheric. Opening credits to a detective show?
Drivetime (3:06)
A hint of French Pop. Rich, Bassy, textured. A laid back groove that's going somewhere...
Louis
Gone Insane (1:56)
Still a little French. Sweet but slightly twisted keyboard sounds over a simple groove with someone whispering in the background.
Thumper (3:07)
Very Sports. High Energy drums, guitars and synths keep pushing and pushing.
Faster (5:59)
An Urban noisescape. Radio, Freeway sounds, guitars, all going in and out of manic beats.
Walk
Away (5:37)
An electric guitar plays a series of simple chord changes, almost alone, some loops and keyboards take over occasionally, but
never for long.
