Featuring that new one from Glass Candy, an incredible new Desire instrumental called "Lately" and an unreleased version of their song "Tears From Heaven", Johnny Jewel's "Reach for the Beach", and more:
Johnny Jewel just dropped his sprawling, excellent (and frankly somewhat overlooked) solo LP Windswept on vinyl earlier today, and the "cherry" red first vinyl pressing sold out in a matter of hours, so he's just released a second limited edition of 1000 records on "milk" white vinyl here...
"Due To Popular Demand From Djs, Designers, Directors, Dancers, & Debutantes...
We're Posting The Instrumental Version Of "AFTER DARK 2" For Everyone To Cut Up For Their Mixtapes, Runways, Films, Stages, Parties, Etc...
Tracklist after the jump. Get it on iTunes. Physical copies apparently "on the way..." Italians Do It Better on the slight discrepancy between the tracklist that's been floating around and the final tracklist: "NIGHT SHIFT & JOHANNA WILL COME OUT EVENTUALLY. AND THE GLASS CANDY SONGS WILL BE ON "BODY WORK". JOHNNY HAD 27 TRACKS MIXED & MASTERED FOR AFTER DARK 2. BUT THESE 15 WERE WHAT HE SAID ..."COMPLETED THE ETIRE VISION OF THE RECORD"... FOR EXAMPLE, "CHERRY" & "LOOKING FOR LOVE" WERE BOTH RECORDED & MIXED BEFORE "KILL FOR LOVE" WAS RELEASED...BUT HE THOUGHT THEY FIT AFTER DARK 2'S PURPOSE MORE"
Another gem from After Dark 2, which is finally/officially out this Friday(!): this glorious 9+ minute vocoder jam from Mirage:"Let's Kiss" was written the same week as "Under Your Spell" in November 2008...
Here's an amazing/essential new mix for autumn from Glass Candy/Chromatics/SYMMETRY/Desire mastermind Johnny Jewel, featuring tracks from SYMMETRY, Glass Candy, Chromatics, Kraftwerk, Nico, and more. Johnny Jewel says:
"After looping the globe twice...We're finally back in Montreal for one of my favorite times of year. It's the end of Autumn, & all of the Reds, Greens, & Yellows have disintegrated into Black & White. Everything is buried by the snow...Perfect weather for locking yourself in the studio with a synthesizer & your favorite records...I put together a collage of songs that, for one reason or another...always remind me of Autumn.
