April 9, 2020 Johnny Jewel remixes Angel Olsen’s “All Mirrors”
Johnny Jewel makes over Angel Olson‘s “In Mirrors” in to a swooning, lustrous night-time anthem. Angel says of the remix:
“I’ve been listening to Chromatics for years but I never thought I’d get the chance to meet them or work with Johnny…It’s always interesting to me what other people hear in something, how one slight movement can change a song completely. I love how he took my vocal lead melody and followed it, making a completely different route for ‘All Mirrors’ as a wonder-dream dance song.”
April 7, 2020 Westerman – Waiting On Design
London’s Westerman shares another glowingly washed gem from his debut full-length Your Hero Is Not Dead, coming June 5th on Play It Again Sam / Partisan Records. Artwork + animation by Bráulio Amado. Westerman posted this about releasing music in time of crisis:
“I hope this suspension of life as we know it isn’t too much for you at the moment. I have been thinking a lot about what I can do and what I should do. It’s disorientating when the rug gets pulled on everything, it’s been wonderful to see such a rapid collective response to these times of enforced solitude. It’s helpful for me to think of the different ways music sustains people who are feeling alone. This music comes in response to the feeling of isolation and disconnect, and I hope it finds you and your loved ones alone, together.”
