If you don’t know kowtow, they’re a Wellington-based clothing label who do some very, very sweet t-shirt prints.
They also put out these CD compilations - 3 of them so far - buy a shirt, get the CD for free. It’s all tasty NZ stuff in a dubby-trip hoppy-electro vein from artists like Olmecha Supreme, Opensouls, [...]
Another new Harmonica Lewinsky song - must have enough for an album now.
This one’s called “the gentle art of self destruction” and it now comes with more cowbell.
‘Cos I got a fever.

Sorry for the delay in posting new stuff last week but dark forces conspired. Now the computers are all running (purged of vista - what a disaster that was), I’m healthy again, and I’ve even got some cool new toys in the studio.
So back into it.
Today I finished mixing this Harmonica Lewinsky track, it’s [...]
Illness (both human and machine) has led to a lack of action this week, so I’ve got no new tracks to post. Instead, shout outs to a couple of the NZ radio shows who’ve been playing our tracks and play other good stuff too:
RDU98.5 where Kid90 hosts “The Green Room”, all NZ electronica, Saturday 5-7 [...]

Vinnie and I are on Waiheke right now for Harmonica Lewinsky rehearsals [...]

It’s been a while since Coya was here in Raglan - I can’t remember if it’s a year or two years ago. She came from Colorado and stayed at our place for a few months and while she claimed to be living in a bivouac on the back porch we’d usually find her on [...]
I recorded the first version of this song a year or so back (or was it 2 years?) Anyway last week we re-worked it as a Harmonica Lewinsky song which has meant making it louder and noisier and more intense.
Tonight I felt like taking it the opposite direction and stripping it right back.

Some moving pictures of us recording picture perfect at the little shack on the hill in Raglan.
Us is me and Lani. Also present are AJ, Thalia, a dog called Dharma, Mrs Nicholson and some cows.
Shot by AJ, chopped by Scott.
I haven’t posted any music this week but there’s a very good reason. Laziness.
And now I’m on Waiheke for more Harmonica Lewinsky practice.
