    Nick Fraelich – Obnoxious Dancing Music LENN9O9N, RELEASES, REVIEWS, THE WHEELIES | Comments Off
    nickfraelich.bandcamp.com/album/obnoxious-dancing-music Something of an honour for me this one. Nick Fraelich first appeared on the tenth and final Daydream Generation compilation at the end of 2010 and blew my socks off with the experimental folk-pop of the quite amazing 'Meta-Song'. Away from more traditional song structures, I also knew that he dabbled in the black magic of psychedelic electronica and had heard the brilliant head-fuck of 'Trip Tent Sound Interlude'.

    Lenn9o9n - Relining Graves download: [download#56#nohits] Listen to Alli: [audio:http://www.daydreamgeneration.com/MP3/Lenn9o9n-Alli.mp3] From the first time I heard Lenn9o9n cover The Beatles' 'Everybody's Got Something To Hide Except For Me And My Monkey' I knew I was listening to something quite extraordinary. Everybody knows that the synthesizer maimed popular music in the 1980s, but here was somebody who might actually make you rethink electronic pop music completely. Not from choice, but necessity (think a 26 year old American travelling the globe with a keyboard strapped to his back, currently alighting in Italy), with the exception of impassioned vocals drenched in precision effects, electronic beats and synthetic melodies are ...
