DeWolff - "It Ain't Easy" (video)
Το νέο δισκογραφικό πόνημα των DeWolff έχει προγραμματισθεί για την αυγή του 2020. Τιτλοφορείται "Tascam Tapes" και θα κυκλοφόρησε τις πρώτες ημέρες του νέου έτους. Οι DeWolff μας έρχονται από την Ολλανδία. Δημιουργήθηκαν το 2007 και χαρακτηρίζουν την μουσική τους ως "Raw Psychedelic Southern Rock".
Δελτίο τύπου: «DeWolff are back and returning to your stereo this winter, but this time they strip down and go COMPACT! No drum kit, no Hammond and no guitar amps, as they present to you, the Tascam Tapes. Written, performed and recorded on the road for less than 50 euros, but sounding like a million bucks! Adjust your ears, as its coming January 10, 2020 via Mascot Records.
For their 7th 'studio' album, their studio was essentially packed into a suitcase. 'Tascam Tapes' was recorded on a Tascam Porta Two, a four track cassette recorder from the 1980's. The only equipment they used was a sampler with some rare soul and funk sampled drum beats loaded in by Luka, a battery powered synthesizer and a guitar, all plugged directly into the recorder.
Pablo van de Poel (guitar, vocals), Luka van de Poel (drums) and Robin Piso (Keys) spent 4 months on the road, hurtling across mainland Europe via food poisoning, altercations with the cops and sold out shows, as they careered through France, Spain, Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, Austria and The Netherlands to bring you these gnarly 12 slices of deliciousness.
So, there you have it. No ordinary album, but then this is no ordinary band. Free-spirited and freewheeling, those teenagers that formed a band from The Netherlands deep south have blazed a trail across Europe, released 6 previous studio albums (5 of which hit the Dutch Top 20), have played shows with the likes of The Black Keys, Blues Pills, Wolf People, Wolfmother and Deep Purple.
They've picked up fans in Seasick Steve, who once woke up backstage at a festival to hear them play, thinking he heard the Allman Brothers playing from 1972 and Roger Glover has openly declared his love for the band AND, to top that off they picked up a Dutch Edison Award (The Netherlands version of The Mercury Music Prize) in February 2019 for 'Best Rock Band.»
DeWolff: «It Ain't Easy is a song that was literally recorded in the back seat of our van on tour. When Luka started this drum sample the chords and melodies just came instantly. It was written in 10 minutes and we've played this song in its entirety only 2 times in our lives: one time practicing it and one time recording it.
The lyrics are an absurd summary of first world problems encountered by a narcissistic 21st century narrator. What better way to depict this story than through a 90's J. Springer-style talkshow?! We have Frank Lammers hosting the show, we have Pablo in drag, Robin as a bum, Luka's got his arm ripped off, we got The Grand East's Arthur Akkermans as a mermaid... it's a MUST SEE!»
