Brett Anderson updates!
Με αρκετά πιο ακουστική και live προσέγγιση, ένα πιάνο, μια κιθάρα και λίγα έγχορδα, η ιδέα του ήρθε κατά την διάρκεια των ακουστικών shows που έδωσε το 2007. Ο Brett Anderson δηλώνει ότι δεν ενδιαφέρεται πλέον να δημιουργεί pop τραγούδια τύπου animal nitrate ή beautiful ones αν και νιώθει πολύ περήφανος για το παρελθόν του. Το μήνυμα του Brett όπως το δημοσίευσε ο ίδιος:
The record will be approached and recorded unlike any I have ever made before
and will hopefully sound completely different too. There will be just two
musicians: myself on piano and guitar and Amy Langley ..o and the songs will be
recorded as complete live takes with no click tracks and just a minimum number
of over-dubs (backing vocals and cello harmonies). This is not vanity, but an
attempt to capture the natural dynamic of the music, for it to ebb and flow to
it's own pulse, not that of a band enslaved by BPM. I want the warmth and feel
that can only come from musicians recorded playing together, the spill and bleed
between mics, the hiss and mistakes that form that secret magic. Most of the
songs I have written by myself but there will be a couple of
surprises.
The experience of performing the recent set of acoustic dates
has given me the confidence to attempt this. When I listen to the recordings of
Union Chapel and Queen Elizabeth Hall I can't help thinking that most of the
songs sound better with this minimal arrangement, that it somehow unlocks their
beauty and soul.
Anyone hoping for another Animal Nitrate or Beautiful
Ones is going to be as dissapointed as I would be if I had written one . I am
less and less interested in making pop music as the years go by and have
virtually no interest in playing that whole sorry game. Don't get me wrong, I'm
still massively proud of my past but it's just not what I want to be doing right
now.
Εμείς να του ευχηθούμε τα καλύτερα και να τον θυμηθούμε με τους Suede στο υπέροχο Europe Is Our Playground στο video που ακολουθεί:
