Stop, Start, Rewind E.P. ....

The Near Future

Well here it is, the third Near Future E.P. and the follow up to twenty-fourteens 'Atoms for Henrietta (Spinning Carousels In Her Mind)'....

'Stop, Start, Rewind'

A twenty-one minute long Trip-Hop journey that takes place inside your grandfathers vintage nineteen-seventies video-cassette-recorder. There's slap bass, crashing sounds of industrial machinery, minimalist piano patterns, WWII air-raid sirens, funky wha-wha guitars, Native American war cries and an apocalyptic string quartet to name but a few. All of which gradually veer off into some old school Funk and a nice little slice of grandma's favorite chilled out Jazz-Funk Fusion.

Just press play below and away we go.....

Additionally, if you feel compelled to add 'Stop, Start, Rewind' to your own personal 

music collection, you can do so by purchasing it from The Near Future! Bandcamp page, at the following link.... Click me, you know you wanna

'The Marsupials Strut'....

Here's a new Funky, Jazzy, Trip-Hopping Piano Instrumental inspired by the Outback and the Down Under. The accompanying video to which I'm editing at the moment.



In case your wondering the sounds in the intro, outro and in the background throughout the track are a combination of separately recorded Didgeridoo's, in various keys, cut and arranged together to make a sort of collage of noise on which the songs arrangement is then built.
