│release notes.
After the recent album "Z" on Thurston Moore's Ecstatic Peace label
earlier this year, here's a brand new collaboration between
Sunburned Hand Of The Man, Four Tet and members from Vibracathedral
Orchestra.
The relationship between Four Tet and Sunburned Hand Of The Man
began in August 2003 when Four Tet, aka Kieran Hebden, read the
August 2003 cover story of The Wire, which touted Sunburned Hand of
the Man as leaders of the "New Weird America." That story sent
Hebden on a search for Sunburned records and he's been a fan ever
since. In 2004, Hebden asked Sunburned to tour with them. A couple
of years later in March 2006, Hebden asked the band if they would
like him to record them with the idea that he would take the
recordings and construct his vision of a Sunburned record.
"Sunburned spent four hours in the London studio the Exchange last
year, following Hebden's lead as he arranged the amorphous band
into different subsets. Hebden made suggestions for what the band
played, and they improvised from those suggestions. Hebden then
reassembled and remixed an album from tracks of that session.
Sunburned co-founder John Moloney explained to Pitchfork, He would
be like, 'I want two of you guys: Play drums and bass now. Everyone
play flutes now. All vocals. OK, a couple of piano pieces. It's a
bit like our older stuff, crossed with a Can record or a dance
record. It's pretty cool.
Hebden agreed: "was surprised that it came out sounding quite a bit
like 23 Skidoo or Cabaret Voltaire. I think there's music in there
that you could play in a club, which is an interesting twist on
what they're doing." (The album track ôThe Parakeet Beatö has now
been remixed by Norway's Bjorn Torske for the 12ö single from the
album).
Moloney explained that the team-up worked simply because of how
enthusiastic both Sunburned and Hebden are about sound. "All the
Four Tet records are basically what we've been doing as a ten-piece
band done by one guy," Moloney said. "Just playing whatever he
feels like playing, whatever he likes. Kieran is definitely a
bigger fan of music than anyone I know. He just listens to records
all of the time."
Hebden gave the finished album to Smalltown Supersound as he
thought this would be a good home for the release. The label was
thrilled. And as both Sunburned and Smalltown Supersound are big
fans of Boredoms and the band`s creative leader Yamataka Eye's art,
he was asked to make the cover for the album. (Eye has released the
art-books Weooem and Ongaloo and has made the cover for Beck's
Midnight Vultures, as well as all the Boredoms covers.) The Eye
artwork perfectly captures the band, the album and the sound.
