Crave Online premieres new nav/attack video for “Factory Life”

Check out the visually bizarre video offering from Los Angeles-based artist, producer and engineer Andrew Lynch.

Crave’s latest exclusive premiere comes by way of nav/attack, the synth-driven art-pop project of Los Angeles-based artist, producer and engineer Andrew Lynch. nav/attack has released its self-titled debut,via Dangerbird Records, hitting the ground running with a positively wild video experience.

According to Lynch, the nav/attack moniker is derived from an ’80s “War Games-esque” software that uses a computer to locate a specific target and relay information back to its human counterpart. To avoid misunderstandings with a computer, you must learn its language. Written, recorded, produced and performed by Andrew Lynch, nav/attack’s self-titled debut LP is a “trip through the post-Computer Age, where each technological stream flows intravenously into the larger consciousness. Piano, trumpet, drums and bass are invaded by drum machines, computer speech, vocoders and vintage samplers.”

“Factory Life” starts with a cymbal processed by a Moog ring modulator,” Lynch explains. “It’s joined by a beat made with a phone and a melody from a plastic music machine of the 80’s. It sounds like an anxiety factory. The process of recording “Factory Life” started pretty unceremoniously. I didn’t have anything, I was just testing out a new microphone on my piano. I got set up and starting improvising and out came the low piano “bass line” that starts the song. The next layers were a drum machine beat from my iPhone and a rumble from an old Slingerland 28″ bass drum. After layering more electronics, I took it out to Aaron Epinoza’s studio The Ship to record some live drums by my friend Denny Weston, Jr. Later, I asked another pal, Robert Douglas, to add electric bass and he played this beautiful 70’s soul melody—it’s still my favorite element in the song.”

Lynch continues: “The video is only one of six videos I directed myself for the album, so I can’t give away the whole story—you’ll have to watch the other ones to get it all. We’ve already met the evil Dr. Ross Arlen (played by Bram Barouh) in an earlier video, but in this one we get a glimpse into the inner lives (booze, shoes, and cocaine) of The Operators, three women who work for the doctor. Every villain needs assistants who actually make the evil happen. These women have the real power… and fun!” WATCH HERE…

Immersive Atlanta interviews Shepherds singer/guitarist Jonathan Merenivitch on the band’s new album Exit Youth, which they’re calling “one of the best local records of the year”

As a long-time fixture of the Atlanta music scene, Jonathan Merenivitch has played the part of the enigmatic frontman (in soul-punks Tendaberry), as well as lending instrumental support to the likes of avant pop act Del Venicci and future-pop giant-in-waiting Janelle Monáe. But of his many projects, Merenivitch seems to have reserved the most time and creative energy for Shepherds, his collaboration with bassist Peter Cauthorn (Mood Rings) and drummer Adrian Switon (Bataille). Although the trio have been offering up their twisted amalgam of post-punk and soul music since 2010, conceptually the band has remained, by and large, Merenivitch’s vision. And nowhere is this more evident and true than on the group’s latest LP, Exit Youth.

Written and recorded over the course of three years, the album traces a dark path, examining the inner turbulence of Merenivitch’s life during a period when he was questioning his decision to devote his life to art and music. Over the course of a dozen sprawling, wide-ranging songs, the band chronicles the small triumphs and bitter defeats, the crappy day jobs and fleeting moments of inspiration, that define the life of a young, aspiring artist.

As a working musician serving under the tutelage of the then blossoming Monáe, Merenivitch had managed to reach a career apex that most artists only dream of obtaining: opening for the legendary Prince at Madison Square Garden. But what should have been a day of triumph crashed to sobering reality when he learned that his car had been repossessed the same evening. Merenivitch calls it a revelatory moment, and it’s just one of the many experiences that’s wound into the DNA of the sweeping Exit Youth. READ MORE…

Saint Pé are Artist of the Day at Myspace

“Saint Pé: We are not trying to reinvent the wheel. We are just trying to put shiny new rims on it.”

That’s the credo singer and guitarist Ian St. Pé proclaims from stage and in interviews to summate his eponymously named band’s sound. The slogan suits its self-released EP, Secular Music. All four songs are modern garage-punk, livened up by Saint Pé’s sunshiny disposition.

His other saying, “Take two steps back to go five steps forward,” may prove to be apt in the coming years. An equally hungry supporting cast and a positive mental attitude may be the necessary ingredients to propel Saint Pé into the touring stratosphere—a course its namesake conquered from 2004-14 as a guitarist for Atlanta-based hell raisers the Black Lips.

Despite its name, Saint Pé is not a solo venture. Early on, Ian met and bonded with an experienced engineer and capable musician in fellow guitarist Ian McDonald (ex-Turf War). Though both Ians now live in Nashville, three-fifths of the current lineup live in Georgia. The rhythm section of bassist Matt McCalvin (ex-Gringo Star, Paralyzer) and drummer John Restivo Jr. (Concord America) are Atlantans, with Athens-based keyboardist John Watkins (Dead Confederate) rounding out the current lineup. Myspace recently talked to Ian Saint Pé about leaving Black lips and starting a new project. READ MORE…

PureVolume debuts Bedouine’s new video for “The City”

Hailing from Los Angeles, singer/songwriter Bedouine is a talent who is able to channel her spiritual and creative energy into her music. Her songs take you on a sonic and lyrical voyage that make the mesmerizing sound mundane. This is a theme you can see in her videos as well, like the one we’re premiering today in “The City.” The song comes from her self-titled EP that saw her work with Jake Blanton (Father John Misty, The Killers, Jenny O) and the video reflects the emotion and cinematic nature of her sonic and visual work.

“Writing this song with Jake Blanton felt easy and serendipitous,” she says of the song. “We never intended to write together really. The song was an unplanned byproduct of a hang that happened to be in a studio. That’s where Jake was living at the time. It was casual and fun, and by no means a ‘writing session.’

“As for the video—being on camera is a formidable task for me, but I found a cozy place in the shadow of lead actress Jessica Nicole Collins. I went to school with the filmmakers Tom Salvaggio and Garrett DeLuca of 12/11 Creative, as well as Jessica. Making music videos together was an unpredictable yet unsurprisingly copacetic collaboration. Its counterpart, our video for “Bright Lights” is technically a prequel to “The City.” Jess and I didn’t know too much about the sequence, which was ok. We had the task of drawing between the lines, and I hope the people who watch enjoy doing so as much as I did.”

Bedouine’s self-titled EP is out now. WATCH HERE…
