MELCHIOR, DAN - All at Sea

Format: LP Label & Cat.Number: NO=FI Recordings NO036 Release Year: 2014 Note: DAN MELCHIOR's album from 2014 has its roots still in folk, blues and songwriting, but working with these elements and combining it with electronic means something different arises, highly listenable & melodic & minimal but with enough experimental edges and surprises.. this is lovely underground drone blues! "..to avant rock, experimental folk/blues and weird sounds....The stuff he played changed with him, slowly affected by electronic music, Krautrock (like Can and Faust), avantgarde, concrete music" Price (incl. 19% VAT): €14.00 More Info "We have been following Dan Melchior since the beginning with the Broken Revue, the collaboration with Billy Childish and the amazing project Dan Melchior und Das Menace. We are amazed by his own original and personal evolution from (let’s say) “orthodox” garage punk songwriter (and what a songwriter! Someone said one of the best in the US, but remember, he is british) to avant rock, experimental folk/blues and weird sounds.#The stuff he played changed with him, slowly affected by electronic music, Krautrock (like Can and Faust), avantgarde, concrete music… as well as a couple of the best Franco Battiatio’s works (“Fetus” and “Pollution”).#“All At Sea” consists of all these elements together: Dan wrote and built great songs never loosing his upset melodic streak BUT breaking down and decomposing the refrain, stretching and forcing the normal structure of a song, filling it with avant-solutions and experiments: “All At Sea” is the result.#10 songs able to keep you there – tied up – for 40 mins – in the dark. https://soundcloud.com/nofirecordings/dan-melchior-what-happened-to-the-buffalo
