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.

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.
But I have been listening to this podcast that Vinnie pointed me to, and it’s well worth checking out for some really cool exploratory instrumental grooves.
Here it is again: [...]
The Harmonica Lewinsky rehearsals are going really well in spite of the tyranny of distance between band members (Wellington - Raglan - Waiheke). Next time I’ll try to get some audio or video from rehearsal and post it here.
Until then, here’s another taste of what we’re up to:

If you don’t like superheros, wrestlers, bikini girls, 2 piece grrrl bands, wonder woman, glam, boxing and rock n roll, then you probably shouldn’t watch this video.
It’s Lani and Dione aka Lena Assault and Gina Brokenheart (and rhythm section of Harmonica Lewinsky) as The Homewreckers - live at artworks theatre.
I mentioned that Lani and Dione (the rhythm section of Harmonica Lewinsky) also play in some other bands - one of them is “Clench”.
Here’s Clench live. Lani is on bass, Dione on drums, Jason on guitar, Bede on guitar and vocals. The song is “Worse” and the clip also features the “Dead Dolls Dancers”.
I’m stoked with how well my new band Harmonica Lewinsky is progressing, especially as we’ve never played together at the same time.
Lani’s playing bass and Dione’s playing drums, and they play together in some other bands so they get to practice together. But because I live in Raglan and they both live on Waiheke Island, [...]
Earlier this week Dennis Kucinich presented 35 articles of impeachment against George Bush to the U.S. congress and I thought it warranted a quick mix. He spoke for 5 hours so I just used the first bits of audio that showed up on youtube.
Be warned: this is essentially 14 and a half minutes of someone [...]
A bit of unofficial remixing for you today.
I’ve always loved Mos Def’s track “Close Edge” and I thought it was time I fleshed it out a bit.

The vocal is taken from this performance on the Dave Chappelle Show and of course there’s a bit of Stevie Wonder in there too.
So that’s Mos, [...]
A while ago I mentioned that Lani Lewis and I would be doing some recording this year. Here’s a taste of what we’re up to:

It’s a pre-mix (meaning not finished) but I thought you might like to hear it in process.
The song is called Picture Perfect - it’s one she’s been playing for a [...]
