on fell - Untitled
*Last 25 copies now available...* By the time Andrew Johnson and Craig Tattersall started recording as The Remote Viewer and The Famous Boyfriend back in the late 90's, they were both no longer active members of Hood, one of the most important bands of the day. In the years that followed both camps would cross paths fairly irregularly, the odd contribution here and there, but never anything more than just a fleeting meeting of old friends sharing ideas. "On Fell" is a new (most likely one-off) collaboration between Hood's Chris Adams and the Remote Viewer's Andrew Johnson, spread across three strictly limited 7" releases (the first of which is out this week), featuring contributions from a bunch of connected heads such as Craig Tattersall and Wedding Present guitarist Paul Dorrington. The music they make is quite different to anything you will have heard from either the Remote Viewer, Bracken, Moteer or Cotton Goods camps over the last few years, the emphasis being on pure, joyous, melancholy and unforgettable pop songs, and we just can't stop listening to them. It might be fuelled by the kind of nostalgia that's impossible to articulate, or maybe it's just because pretty much everyone involved in this project has had a hand in some of the music we've loved most over the last 15 years; but quite honestly we were almost in tears the first time we heard the first of the two untitled tracks here, and every time we listen to it we get that same bittersweet sense of joy. These are simple songs, produced and recorded with a rough-around-the-edges, almost naive aesthetic that is the polar opposite to so much of the music we listen to these days. It's true, there are electronic treatments on the vocals, there's a heavy low-end element and sonic trickery present, but it still feels like a momentary step back to another era, one we almost forgot. We can't tell you how much we love this 7" - if any of this means anything to you we urge you to grab one of the 300 copies available while you can, it's a keeper.
