Ninja have put out some, well, letÆs say some eccentric records
over the last few years. And few were more eccentric than
HomelifeÆs ôFlying Wondersö. A giant collective from Manchester
based around bassist Paddy Steer and guiatarists Tony Burnside and
Simon King, their 2002 album combined classical training, folk,
eastern melodies, latin rhythms and just about anything else you
could think of into a suprisingly accessible psychedelic pop whole.
Unsurprisingly, the record was critically acclaimed, with Gilles
Peterson picking it as his album of the month on his ôWorldwideö
radio show.
Now comes the ôFlying Wondersö EP, where, rather than recording the
band in small groups in SteerÆs loft, 12 members of Homelife went
to Moolah Rouge Studios and recorded two tracks from the album
live, plus two completely new compositions.
The results are everything you would expect û a more fluid, relaxed
reading of the Homelife blueprint which give you a taste of what
their live show delivers time and again. Featuring more of the
incredible vocals of Seaming To, plus the slightly more downbeat
delivery of Burnside, the main thing you can say is that this is a
fantastic ensemble enjoying playing together.
Have a listenà
