Champion Sound

2006… as seen through the eyes of Mountain Rescue

It was quite the year, for myself it started off when I moved back to England after 5 months in Canada. After a brief stint in London I headed south settling in Brighton, oh and Italy won the world cup.

On the Mountain Rescue side of things we have hit a milestone – show #10, and our first release – Damadeo’s Red Wine Apocalypse

I’ve put together a quick overview of my all winners. A show of songs from artists I thought put out something special in 2006. There was so much good music to be heard this year, escpecially in a resurgent and vibrant folkelectronica scene.

My 5 top albums of the year were as follows /// Jimmy Edgar Colour Strip /// Herbert Scale /// Spank Rock yoyoyoyo /// Bonnie Prince Billy The Letting Go /// Scott Matthews Passing Stranger ///

On to the All winners show.

Red Wine Apocalypse

 

The boy, D>A>M>A>D>E>O, stares out the brother, Mountain Rescue. He fires an intense volley of noise into his stomach. He spits back at him, an inch or two from his face, and collapses to the floor. He places the body of his guitar, now rampaging into feedback, on the ground between his knees, and angles the neck over him. He arches his back, hair flailing. The sound surges…

As much as we would like to say this is how D>A>M>A>D>E>O AKA Daniel Lucchesi put together his first single it simply isn’t the case. D>A>M>A>D>E>O, a work-a-holic and self proclaimed media node (Trashbat to the core) churned his computer, sampling and sequencing this film and musical score while consuming a heroic amount of red wine.

A look at things today and a dip into yester year, It’s entitled Red Wine Apocalypse and is out now on Mountain Rescue Records. His debut concept album entitled lost footage is planned for release in the New Year.

First off, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all. I’m so sorry for the lack of music of late, it’s hard to believe it’s been 2 month’s since the last show.

Life has been pretty hectic of late and I haven’t had a chance to listen to music, let alone put together a show. I’m now suitably recharged and chilled and have put together a more refined, diginified mix… it was all getting a bit dark and robotic so I’ve taken a step back and dug out some jazz, soul and house.

It’s a mix to grind to, bob to and kick back to – A big thank goes out to Ascoli for reminding me how to do this.

enjoy
