53431…

Posted in 53431, New album, New song, s-endz, swami on January 19th, 2009

 

 

The two new Swami songs that we wrote last week are now recorded, mixed and finished.

 

I think I can get away with revealing some info about them.

 

They are both commercial and uptempo, produced by Diamond, with vocals from myself, Sups and Liana, and live percussion from Bobby P. They are more commercial than anything we’ve done to date, and we’re all really happy with how they’ve turned out. As always, our live set was something we kept in mind during the writing and recording, and these songs are definately gonna be crowd-pleasers once we work them into our set.

 

Oh yeah -and these two songs will see a release sooner than the rest of the new material that we are working on….but you’ll find out about that soon enough.

 

Maybe I shouldn’t give the titles away just yet……anyway there’s much more to come, so hold steady and get ready to move into an alternate galaxy……..53431…

 

Peace ,

Prince – FIVE NEW SONGS!!!!!! LISTEN NOW!

Posted in New album, New song, Prince on December 19th, 2008

(Update: 21st December)  – Links are down for the time being and may or may not come back. They got spread around just a little bit too much. For the record, I did not receive any request from Prince or anyone representing him to remove them, it’s entirely my own decision, and I’m happy that a few people got to hear them who may not have had access to the radio station they premiered on. But, if Prince or his web team would like to get in touch with a real fan who has some great ideas on how he can create a revolutionary new internet presence and set a new precedent……then get at me dawg )

 

 

My mind is officially blown. FIVE new Prince songs premiered yesterday. 4 of them on Steve Jones (ex Sex Pistols) radio show in Los Angeles, and the 5th on a mysterious new website. Check em all out below, they are all awesome, some of the best stuff he has done in a long while.  I’m going to write a little bit about each one, not much though as I still need to digest all of this awesomeness properly.

 

 

Crimson & Clover

a purple take on the 60′s classic. it’s got a very ‘Purple Rain’ vibe to it. Amazing.  When Prince does a cover, it can be pretty hit or miss (for example, hit = his cover of Betcha By Golly Wow, miss= his cover of Every Day is A Winding Road)……this one is HIT HIT HIT HIT. Easily my favorite version of the song now.

Colonized Mind

I’m finding it difficult to find another Prince song to compare this to. Musically, it’s almost Hendrix-esque. Very deep lyrics on this one.  I think this one will need the most listens to really understand. But it sounds incredible.

Wall of Berlin

Some might remember Prince’s words from the end of the title track to his 2006 album "3121" – "It’s going down y’all……like the Wall of Berlin". So clearly this concept has been in his mind for a while.

Just like the last two tracks, this is a very organic rocker, but with a more pop feel. Catchy and memorable.

4ever

This one was mentioned a few weeks back in an interview Prince did. A classic Prince ballad.  "Eternity is just one kiss away".

There’ll Never B (Another Like Me)

 

This one wasn’t premiered on the radio show. A few days ago, a short instrumental clip of this track appeared on a mysterious new site (mplsound.com) – immediately setting the Prince fan community ablaze on whether it was real or not. It’s cut from a different cloth than the other new songs – this one is a serious funk jam with plenty of Prince’s trademark 80′s sounds like the LinnDrum.
