Pirates Player: Let’s Obliterate Each Other

This song here is a collaboration between me (rhythm track) and Chris Trull (everything else). It’s from a full-length release of collaborations between Chris and various beatmaking dudes called “We Are Irrelevant.” The entire record can be downloaded free of charge here. If you like mind-bending guitar work that ain’t your daddy’s typical wankery, I suggest you grab it. 

New Christopher Trull music for 2011!

Mercy Choir - Yr Style

“Yr Style” - Mercy Choir 5/18/10 

As part of the promotional lead up to the June 10 release of the new “Mercy Choir” E.P. “Sings”, the duo has released the track “Yr Style” as a preview.This track marks a series of firsts for the NYC group:

- It’s the first time anyone other than primary songwriter Paul Belbusti has been heard on a Mercy Choir track. Brooklyn’s Rosser Lomax, the other half of the psych folk duo, plucks on the telecaster and sings plenty of juicy harmonies.

- It’s the first Mercy Choir track to be recorded somewhere other than Belbusti’s home studio. The entire E.P. was recorded at Spaceman Sound Studios in Brooklyn.

- It’s perhaps the poppiest Belbusti composition ever. And it might be a little jarring to anyone who’s used to Mercy Choir’s occasionally abrasive and lo-fi material.

 “Sings” marks the beginning of a new era for the tirelessly performing Mercy Choir. After a rapid fire series of live performances in NYC, the CD release party for “Sings” will be held at Bar Matchless in Brooklyn on June 10 (with PAPS and Morgan Heringer) and then June 13 at HILLSTOCK 2010, a yearly Brooklyn music festival.

The E.P. will be released digitally and on limited edition, hand assembled CD.
