mameeshkamowskwoz Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 http://koolarrow.com/house-of-hayduk-city-of-quartz/ RELEASE DATE: NOV 23, 2012 Created and produced by Mads Heldtberg Mixed by Jim Monti Mastered by Lupo (Dubplates and Mastering) House of Hayduk is the brainchild of the Danish/American composer, producer and musician Mads Heldtberg; the idea rooted in the belief that there is a common musical thread shared by both musicians and music fans, that transcends genre, age and aesthetic. In this spirit, the foundation of the album focuses on 3 generations of players –Bill Gould (FAITH NO MORE), Charles Hayward (THIS HEAT) and Mads Heldtberg (DÜREFÖRSÖG) meeting up and recording in a studio in New York; from there comes deconstructing, reassembling and adding of additional musicians to create four entirely new linear pieces of music. Drums radiate a sense of power, doom and darkness that is both profoundly human; and as chaotic and unforgiving as a force of nature. Hard driving, monolithic bass that begs to be experienced on a massive sound system. Shards of surgical guitar slice through thick vapor, accompanied by a symphony of exotic percussion. Filtered through a dub-like, hypnotic lens, “City of Quartz” is a a musical indulgence, refined with obsessive detail; this album wasn’t written–it was designed with intent. THIS ALBUM IS A LIMITED EDITION OF ONLY 500 NUMBERED COPIES…there are no plans to make this available on cd or through iTunes. and features a series of fantastic players, including: BJ Miller (HEALTH), Peter Peter (SODS), Dean Hurley (David Lynch), Timba Harris (Estradasphere), & Anders Trentemøller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astrangerwithcandy Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 Hm. Is there anywhere to listen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mameeshkamowskwoz Posted October 11, 2012 Author Share Posted October 11, 2012 Yes. http://koolarrow.com/city-of-quartz/ has some 46 second sound samples. I just bought it knowing that I may not love it, but that it will probably be interesting. Now that I'm checking it out I'm glad I did... sounds very cool. I would buy anything with Timba Harris' involvement, though... Estradasphere is my favorite band. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
