24 Hours Ghost Tracks.jpg

The unreleased bootleg album downloads…

These (mostly) Fatalists tracks are unreleased instrumental mixes, radically different from the songs from which they originate. Instrumental elements from both We Never Had Control and 24 Hours To Nowhere collide and merge with parts of the soundtrack to the short feature film 'L'imbarcadero'. I always felt there was a continual flow of music between these projects - that they're part of the same wordless narrative, coming from the same timeless, semi-imaginary place, part Calabria and part Australia, an incredibly familiar dreamscape in an otherworldly way. Every time I hear Angie Hart's version of 24 Hours To Nowhere, I'm astonished all over again by her uniquely beautiful voice that's impossible to define and by the effortless way she gets to the heart of the song. All the Fatalists musicians feature in these recordings: Vicki Brown, Erik Van Loos, Antonio Gramentieri, Diego Sapignoli, Checco Giampaoli and Davide Mahony.

CONFESSION

I’ve been attempting white light meditation as well as rebirthing in the freezing ocean water with Jack the dog. I’ve tried drugs, women and song but the kundalini yoga fills a hole with peacefulness that drugs, women and song have failed.  To my girlfriend’s punk horror (and what I think is a little bit of jealousy) I sometimes practise the kundalini yoga in front of her! She understands I’m constantly searching for any kind of translucent light! Blue, white, red or on this particular morning……  BLACK!

More unreleased bootleg album downloads…

The 10 tracks on The Spirit were selected from sessions where we created more than 20 songs, another 5 of them released on the False Idols EP. Rummaging through the archive turned up more unreleased songs from the same sessions. Heartbreak 69 Revisited is a 16 minute edit from the 32 minute original where we went full intuitive, wandering around the studio playing different instruments to an industrial pulse. Do You Remember and One Cylinder (the 7 inch B-side to Elevate My Love) are songs that didn’t hang in the same space as The Spirit. Ain't No Heaven and S.T.I.S. are deeply strange demo’s that were left unfinished. In an embryonic way, this (never before released) album of orphans seem to me the point of departure for Star Birth….
