the warlocks简介:小简介 [00:00:07]
一个奇怪的合作:美国洛杉矶九人Drone Rock/Garage Rock乐队The Warlocks,竟计划[00:00:11]
在其第二张专辑里找来Andrew Weatherall这位英国DJ兼制作人参与——奇就奇在近年[00:00:15]
Weatherall已甚少现身于别人的唱片里。 [00:00:19]
现在为Two Lone Swordsmen成员的Weatherall,他是英国跳舞音乐界一个甚具性格的DJ兼制[00:00:23]
作人,要是The Warlocks真的能够得到他出手跨刀,定必成为一时佳话。 [00:00:27]
早在Indie-Dance年代,Weatherall曾为Happy Mondays(Hallelujah)、James(Come Home)、[00:00:31]
Flowered Up(Weekender)等乐队炮制过经典的Remixes;他监制过的专辑更寥寥可数,[00:00:35]
只有Primal Scream的Screamadeliea和One Dove的Morning Dove White两张而已。[00:00:38]
后来他希望专注于其乐队The Sabres Of Paradise的发展而淡出幕后工作,在Sabres解散[00:00:46]
后他则跟Keith Tenniswood组成Two Lone Swordsmen。 [00:00:50]
Indeed, it's been a long strange trip for Warlocks leader Bobby Hecksher since [00:01:08]
his band played their first gig on July 4th, 1998. Hecksher, who moved to[00:01:24]
California from Florida in the late '80s, formed his first group shortly after[00:01:40]
arriving. Charles Brown Superstar issued two singles and two full-length[00:01:53]
albums before calling it a day. Hecksher was later invited to play on Beck's [00:02:09]
Stereo Pathetic Soul Manure (Flipside), then -- along with James Ambrose [00:02:30]
-- formed Magic Pacer, who waxed two albums for Win Records before Hecksher [00:02:49]
splintered off to do his own thing. Over the course of several years and [00:03:00]
many personnel changes, Hecksher eventually formed his eight-piece band, [00:03:18]
calling them the Warlocks, a moniker that had been previously used by early[00:03:30]
incarnations of both the Velvet Underground and the Grateful Dead. [00:03:48]
While no one will mistake them for a Deadhead band, the Warlocks' earliest [00:03:50]
recordings do often sound like they're channeling a fever-soaked Velvet [00:03:55]
Underground (circa White Light, White Heat), while drawing further influence[00:04:08]
from space rock, prog, and Krautrock bands (including Neu! and Hawkwind). [00:04:17]
The Warlocks subsequently emerged as leading lights on the Los Angeles [00:04:26]
music scene in 1999-2000, and in October 2000 Hecksher signed a two-album [00:04:35]
production deal with America's oldest indie label, the Burbank-based Bomp!,[00:04:45]
who issued their self-titled debut EP in early 2001. Hecksher has also[00:04:54]
produced a 16mm short for "Cocaine Blues," which features cameo appearances [00:05:08]
by Hecksher and friends (including Rivers Cuomo of Weezer).[00:05:16]
